performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
jammy to verification-done-jammy. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-jammy. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.

Title:
  upstream Intel VSC firmware paths moved to intel/vsc/

Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in linux-firmware source package in Jammy:
  Fix Committed
Status in linux-firmware source package in Noble:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  [SRU Justification]

  [Impact]

  In upstream commit 5370a431 ("mei: vsc: Rework firmware image names") for
  char-misc-next targeting v6.8, the VSC firmware paths have been changed to
  intel/vsc instead of the original vsc/soc_a1_prod that has been used for all
  existing Intel IPU6 camera platforms.

  [Fix]

  Upstream linux-firmware commit cfc997c6 ("intel: vsc: Add firmware for Visual
  Sensing Controller").

  In order to keep backward compatibility for Jammy oem/hwe kernels, an 
additional
  patch adds symlinks for each moved binary.

  [Test Case]

  The binaries are bit-to-bit identical, except for the destination path
  installed. With extra symlinks created, all the IPU6 platforms should keep
  working as usual.

  [Where problems could occur]

  No problem is expected.

  [Other Info]

  We're switching to upstreamed binaries in Jammy and Noble, because they're
  likely to receive furhter updates for both linux-firmware and vsc drivers.
