Hmm, found out new kind of error on latest OpenWrt latest snapshot self compiled :

Maybe because of applying this PR for latest linux-firmware updates?

Closing this one, as I have been wrongly uploading the firmware files in ASCII/TEXT Mode instead of BINARY mode with my SCP client. No wonder the firmware files got mangled and the mt7915e kernel module not able to load it.

Sorry for this false alarm.
