I think you need:

CONFIG_PREVENT_FIRMWARE_BUILD=y

Configured into your kernel.

Have a look at your dmesg output. It should have your Radeon card
version listed. Mine is a Radeon REDWOOD chip.

Here's my kernel config relating to building firmware into the kernel:

(ignore the fact that I wastefully build in all the chip versions other
than the REDWOOD)

CONFIG_PREVENT_FIRMWARE_BUILD=y
CONFIG_FIRMWARE_IN_KERNEL=y
CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE="radeon/REDWOOD_pfp.bin radeon/REDWOOD_rlc.bin \
radeon/REDWOOD_me.bin radeon/CEDAR_pfp.bin radeon/CEDAR_rlc.bin \
radeon/CEDAR_me.bin radeon/CYPRESS_me.bin radeon/CYPRESS_pfp.bin \
radeon/CYPRESS_rlc.bin radeon/JUNIPER_me.bin radeon/JUNIPER_pfp.bin \
radeon/JUNIPER_rlc.bin carl9170-1.fw"
CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR="/lib/firmware"
