[Bug 2115758] Re: initramfs-tools: autopkgtest fails on arm64 with Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/apple/dfrmtfw-*.bin for built-in driver apple_z2

 

Instead of ignoring this warning, we should figure out why we get this
warning. Does the kernel falsely refer to this firmware? Should we ship
this firmware file?

  New

Bug description:
  See e.g.
  https://objectstorage.prodstack5.canonical.com/swift/v1/AUTH_0f9aae918d5b4744bf7b827671c86842/autopkgtest-

  The output at the end of the test is:

  If the error can be ignored, maybe the test just needs to be updated
  with `allow-stderr`.
