Public bug reported:

Upon login to my computer I receive a notification there is new
firmware.

Upon arriving at the Settings > Devices > Firmware page I am told that:

"Dell Precision M5520 Thunderbolt Controller 26.01" has a new update.
Expanding the details the changelog reports the version of the update as
"21.00".

As one might expect from that point, I cannot do anything (there is
nothing to install, the firmware is very obviously 5+ versions behind
what is currently installed).


What should happen: 
I shouldn't be notified about firmware if there is nothing for me to do.

** Affects: linux-firmware (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

** Attachment added: "lsb-release et al."
