I reviewed linux-firmware-raspi2 version 2-0ubuntu1 as checked into 
groovy. This is very quick pass over the package.

My concerns for this package are nearly identical to my concerns given in 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rpi-eeprom/+bug/1895137/comments/11
Thanks Dave for anticipating similar expectations for this package:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware-raspi2/+bug/1867813/comments/13

One concern I have with this package is the get-orig-source target 
downloads files without strong verification of file contents, it is 
trusting the github infrastructure and x.509 ecosystem to make sure 
incorrect files aren't downloaded by accident.

This isn't ideal but also isn't restricted to this one package.

Security team ACK for promoting linux-firmware-raspi2 to restricted.

Thanks
