Package: raspi-firmware
Version: 1.20200212-1
Severity: wishlist

The raspberry pi 4 won't load the brcm43455 wireless driver without the 
proper nvram file in place. Currently there's a 
/lib/firmware/brcm/brcmfmac43455-sdio.txt nvram file, but I think 
that's for earlier pi versions. Upstream has a file specifically for 
the pi 4:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/tree/brcm/brcmfmac43455-sdio.raspberrypi,4-model-b.txt

Including that nvram file in the raspi-firmware package would allow 
wifi to work on the pi 4, and probably makes more sense than trying to 
get it included in the firmware-brcm80211 package.
