== SRU Justification ==
This firmware was optional when the MODULE_FIRMWARE statements were
removed in bug 1626740 by Bionic commit dc0f16f9b50.  The firmware is now 
available and in use, so these statements need to be added back.

Without these statements, The i915 Kabylake GuC firmware is failing to load 
on boot, and generating dmesg errors.

== Fix ==
Revert Bionic commit dc0f16f9b5084e6be2b8c79f8c6cd499a3451791.

== Regression Potential ==
Low.  Adding a statement back that was removed by a SAUCE patch.

== Test Case ==
A test kernel was built with this patch and tested by the original bug reporter.
The bug reporter states the test kernel resolved the bug.
