** Description changed:

- Problem
+ [ Impact ]
  
  After today's update to the 5.13 kernel, my laptop's screen stopped
  working, showing random patterns instead.  The laptop is ThinkPad X13
  with an AMD GPU.
  
  In dmesg there was a message about amdgpu/renoir_ta.bin missing.
  Following some StackOverflow advice, I downloaded and installed linux-
  firmware_1.201_all.deb from the 21.10 repo, which has
  amdgpu/renoir_ta.bin and rebooted, which fixed my issue.
  
  Proposed Solution
  
  Add amdgpu/renoir_ta.bin to the current version of the linux-firmware
  package for 20.04 LTS.

+ [ Test Case ]
+ 
+ See above. Kernel log shows firmware load failures for amdgpu firmware
+ in combination with the OEM 5.13 kernel.
+ 
+ [ Fix ]
+ 
+ Kernel fixes for new amdgpu firmware have landed in linux-oem-5.13 so
+ it's now safe to update amdgpu firmware on focal to match impish.
