usx2yloader however seems to put files outside the /lib/firmware path (/usr/share/alsa/...), and I believe it has a userspace firmware loader triggered by an udev event.
These are basically for 2.2 / 2.4 kernels. Don't touch them unless you are 100% sure you do right :)
Assuming you mean the tascam usx2yloader, a little digging shows that,
1) the usx2y driver never calls request_firmware (unless I really missed something)
2) there is an Ubuntu specific patch which creates an udev rule for calling tascam_fw and tascam_fpga (from alsa-tools) when a tascam device is connected.
Are you saying that the tascam devices (us122, us224, us428) no longer need that firmware?
