That's from hotplugs ChangeLog.

Mon Sep 20 2004 kroah
         - 2004_09_20 release
[...]
         - From Marcel Holtmann <marcel at holtmann.org>
                 - fix location of FIRMWARE_DIR to /lib/firmware

On the other hand, for example eagle doesn't need hotplug to work.
Then maybe FHS is better?
