Title:
  [arm64][libvirt] firmware metadata files not found for arm64 on ubuntu
  18.04

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Expired

Bug description:
  From devstack arm64 job patch [1], I found this error [2][3] when
  using bionic images on arm64 environment:

  
  Failed to build and run instance: nova.exception.InternalError: Failed to locate firmware descriptor files
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/opt/stack/nova/nova/compute/manager.py", line 2393, in _build_and_run_instance

      self._loaders = _get_loaders()

      raise exception.InternalError(msg)
  nova.exception.InternalError: Failed to locate firmware descriptor files

  As I move [1] to use the focal version, this error message disappeared.
  The wired part is I do can locate firmware descriptor files on my AWS bionic arm64 test environment right at the same demanded path. So I'm not sure what exactly happened there
