This warning means that the driver references the firmware but that it
isn't installed. Intel has not yet pushed out this firmware to upstream
linux-firmware, once they have done so it will make it's way into
Ubuntu. I'll also point out that we don't officially support any
4.8-based kernels yet, and when running early -rc kernels you're likely
to hit some snags.
Marking as invalid on the basis of using a non-supported kernel and
because the firmware is not upstream.
