Dear Bernhard,

Thank you very much for your clear and helpful report!

so indeed it is a bug that we don't ship this one from upstream,
will fix this in next Debian upload.

this should be reported upstream, so that everyone takes advantage of
it, hence adding linux-firmware mailinglist on Cc, happy to cook up
a patch next 24hs.

The symbolic links are better than duplicated files, but there seem to
be on the Debian side an opened can of trouble on them, see #982757
(I'll post there soonish)
 
Thank you for the kind words, the test and your report!
