[Bug 2104199] Re: FFe: firmware extracted by qcom-firmware-extract not included in initrd

[Tobias Heider]

Fix at
https://code.launchpad.net/~tobhe/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-x1e-settings/+git/ubuntu-x1e-settings/+merge/483437

** Description changed:

  [ Summary ]
  
  A recent change in qcom-firmware-extract changed the path firmware is
  extracted to from /lib/firmware to /lib/firmware/updates.
  
  This was necessary because some of the device firmware files were
  upstreamed into linux-firmware, so extracting to /lib/firmware would
  cause conflicts.
  
  The ubuntu-x1e-settings hook was not updated to also include firmware
  from the new path in the initrd which breaks some functionality.
+ 
+ [ Regression Potential ]
+ 
+ Very little, this will only add a few more files to the initrd if they
+ are found. It also only applies to a limited set of hardware.
