Having just upgraded from Focal (w/ original 5.4 kernel) to Groovy
(5.8.0-44), this issue definitely seems to have regressed.

Does it require a new bug since this one is tagged "Focal"?  That said
one of the above reports also claims that it affects the Focal 5.8
series.  Could someone advise?  Very happy to raise a new bug and link
to this one if this is the right approach.

Title:
  update-initramfs complains of missing amdgpu firmware files

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in linux source package in Focal:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  SRU Justification

  Impact: amdgpu references firmware files in modinfo which have not
  been supplied to linux-firmware. This causes update-initramfs to
  generate "Possible missing firmware" warnings.

  Fix: Since the firmware is not available, all we can do is remove the
  files from modinfo.

  Test Case: Confirm that update-initramfs no longer produces the
  warnings.

  Regression Potential: Low. If someone had managed to obtain these
  files they will no longer be added to the initramfs, potentially
  causing regressions for these users. This would be an atypical
  situation.
