Public bug reported:

The 3.19 vivid kernel requires additional firmware files not currently
present in trusty's linux-firmware package, otherwise some drivers may
not work properly or at all. These are all new files which will not be
used by the kernels currently supported in trusty, so there is minimal
potential for regression.
