I reverted to debian because of this.

I will assume that quite many people do not have netronome hardware which weighs in at almost 150MB of that. I kindly suggest to put such large firmware for less common hardware into its own linux-firmware-extra package which would be recommended by linux-firmare. Comments? I'm willing to help with the packaging provided that the changes have a chance to land.
