This bug was fixed in the package linux-firmware-raspi2 -
3-0ubuntu2~20.10.1

---------------
linux-firmware-raspi2 (3-0ubuntu2~20.10.1) groovy; urgency=medium

  * Backport to groovy (LP: #1911687)
  * Add wifi configuration file for CM4

linux-firmware-raspi2 (3-0ubuntu1) hirsute; urgency=medium

  * New upstream boot firmware release, 1.20210108
  * New upstream bluetooth firmware release, 1.2-4+rpt7

    [ Phil Elwell ]
    - Bug fix CYW43455 firmware
      - This update fixes the failure of CYW43455 to accept BLE connections.
      - Original firmware name: BCM4345C0_003.001.025.0171.0339.hcd
      - See: https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/issues/3689

    [ Phil Elwell ]
    - Add BCM43430B0.hcd

  * New upstream wifi firmware release, 1:20190114-1+rpt10

    [ Phil Elwell ]
    - New clm_blob for BCM43456
      - An updated clm_blob to open up the 80MHz channels.
    - Use BCM43456 clm_blob on CYW43455
      - The previous CYW43455 clm_blob provides limited access to the higher
        5GHz channels (100+) - the BCM43456 (surprisingly) seems to work and
        doesn't have this problem.

    [ Phil Elwell ]
    - Add BCM43436 firmware
      - brcm/brcmfmac43436-sdio.bin 9.88.4.65
      - brcm/brcmfmac43436-sdio.clm_blob
      - brcm/brcmfmac43436-sdio.txt

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  For the upcoming 20.04.2 point release, we want the raspberry pi
  images to have the latest firmware bits available. So this update
  falls under the HWE criterium.

  This bumps the boot firmware to 20210108, the wifi firmware to +rpt10,
  and the bluez firmware to +rpt7.

  The focal backport contains an additional Breaks: flash-kernel
  (<<3.103) entry in d/control as the firmware package changed during
  the groovy cycle to rely on flash-kernel for copying the boot firmware
  to the boot partition rather than using a postinst. Thus the focal
  backport depends on LP: #1904890.

  [Test Case]

  Build a new raspi image for each affected series and do a sanity smoke
  test if it boots, has wifi and bluetooth works.

  Take an existing old raspi image and try to upgrade linux-firmware-
  raspi2, reboot, make sure everything still works.

  [Where problems could occur]

  Basically the only regression-prone parts are wireless, bluetooth and
  possibly bootability. Another place where things could go wrong is
  with package dependencies and the introduced 'Breaks' not doing what
  it should.
