+/// ## Firmware
+///
+/// The following example shows how to declare a kernel module that needs
+/// to load binary firmware files. You need to specify the file names of
+/// the firmware in the `firmware` field. The information is embedded
+/// in the `modinfo` section of the kernel module. For example, a tool to
+/// build an initramfs uses this information to put the firmware files into
+/// the initramfs image.
+///
+/// ```ignore
+/// use kernel::prelude::*;
+///
+/// module!{
+/// type: MyDeviceDriverModule,
+/// name: "my_device_driver_module",
+/// author: "Rust for Linux Contributors",
+/// description: "My device driver requires firmware",
+/// license: "GPL",
+/// firmware: ["my_device_firmware1.bin", "my_device_firmware2.bin"],
+/// }
+///
+/// struct MyDeviceDriverModule;
+///
+/// impl kernel::Module for MyDeviceDriverModule {
+/// fn init() -> Result<Self> {
+/// Ok(Self)
+/// }
+/// }
+/// ```
+///
/// # Supported argument types
/// - `type`: type which implements the [`Module`] trait (required).
/// - `name`: ASCII string literal of the name of the kernel module (required).
/// - `description`: string literal of the description of the kernel module.
/// - `license`: ASCII string literal of the license of the kernel module (required).
/// - `alias`: array of ASCII string literals of the alias names of the kernel module.
+/// - `firmware`: array of ASCII string literals of the firmware files of
+/// the kernel module.
