Title:
update-initramfs complains of missing amdgpu firmware files

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in linux source package in Focal:
Fix Committed

Bug description:
SRU Justification

Impact: amdgpu references firmware files in modinfo which have not
been supplied to linux-firmware. This causes update-initramfs to
generate "Possible missing firmware" warnings.

Fix: Since the firmware is not available, all we can do is remove the
files from modinfo.

Test Case: Confirm that update-initramfs no longer produces the
warnings.

Regression Potential: Low. If someone had managed to obtain these
files they will no longer be added to the initramfs, potentially
causing regressions for these users. This would be an atypical
situation.
