bug and I'll be happy to add it to linux-firmware.

Title:
Bluetooth firmware for dell xps 13
Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
STEPS:
1. Install 16.04 current on dell xps 13
2. Try connecting a bluetooth device.
EXPECTED:
I expect devices to just connect
ACTUAL:
I had to follow a guide here https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dell_XPS_13_(2015) to enable the firmware however it looks like the dell driver pack may include a .deb file for it. From Dell xps13_A08.fish.tar.gz contains a bluetooth firmware patch too by the look of things.
