It must be a feature in the table (doc/guides/nics/features/).
The deprecation notice must be removed also.

I think it is OK to add a new dev_ops and a new API function for firmware
query. Generally speaking, it is a good thing to avoid putting all
informations in the same structure (e.g. rte_eth_dev_info). However, there
is a balance to find. Could we plan to add more info to this new query?
Instead of
	rte_eth_dev_fwver_get(uint8_t port_id, char *fw_version, int fw_length)
could it fill a struct?
	rte_eth_dev_fw_info_get(uint8_t port_id, struct rte_eth_dev_fw_info *fw_info)

We already have
	rte_eth_dev_get_reg_info(uint8_t port_id, struct rte_dev_reg_info *info)
with
	uint32_t version; /**< Device version */

There are also these functions (a bit related):
	rte_eth_dev_get_eeprom_length(uint8_t port_id)
	rte_eth_dev_get_eeprom(uint8_t port_id, struct rte_dev_eeprom_info *info)
