Title:
  Invoking obsolete 'firmware_install' target breaks snap build

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in linux source package in Bionic:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Impact:

  The snapcraft.yaml in bionic/master invokes the now obsolete
  'firmware_install' target that was removed in
  5620a0d1aacd554ebebcff373e31107bb1ef7769 ("firmware: delete in-kernel
  firmware"), and by invoking a non existing target, it breaks the build
  process.

  On a generic amd64 environment, check out the Bionic/generic tree, cd
  into it and execute snapcraft:

  linux $ snapcraft
  ...
  make -j4 bzImage modules
  ...
    LD [M]  virt/lib/irqbypass.ko
  make: *** No rule to make target 'firmware_install'.  Stop.
  make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
    INSTALL arch/x86/crypto/blowfish-x86_64.ko
  ...
  make -j4 CONFIG_PREFIX=/home/flag/canonical/linux/parts/kernel/install 
modules_install 
INSTALL_MOD_PATH=/home/flag/canonical/linux/parts/kernel/install 
firmware_install 
INSTALL_FW_PATH=/home/flag/canonical/linux/parts/kernel/install/lib/firmware
  Failed to run 'make -j4 
CONFIG_PREFIX=/home/flag/canonical/linux/parts/kernel/install modules_install 
INSTALL_MOD_PATH=/home/flag/canonical/linux/parts/kernel/install 
firmware_install 
INSTALL_FW_PATH=/home/flag/canonical/linux/parts/kernel/install/lib/firmware' 
for 'kernel': Exited with code 2.
  Verify that the part is using the correct parameters and try again.

  Fix:

  Since firmware files were removed from the Linux source code, and we
  rely on files provided by the linux-firmware package, skip invoking
  'firmware_install' altogether and fix the build.

  linux $ snapcraft
  ...
  Staging kernel
  Staging firmware
  Priming kernel
  Priming firmware
  Determining the version from the project repo (version-script).
  The version has been set to '4.15.0-24.26'
  Snapping 'pc-kernel' |
  Snapped pc-kernel_4.15.0-24.26_amd64.snap
  linux $

  Regression risk:

  None since the patch only modifies the snapcraft.yaml file.
