I will look into this soon, probably this weekend.

I will direct any questions I have to the submitters and to this bug
report.

However, I have to find out if these firmware data files should go into
the early initramfs like the microcode (and *how*: naming, packaging
into a single file? the early initramfs works differently than normal
firmware loading).  Or should it go into the normal initramfs ?  Or
both?

If you have the answer to these questions and can follow up with them,
it will hasten the fix since I will not have to spend time looking for
the answers.
