Status in linux-firmware source package in Mantic:

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  /lib/firmware/brcm/brcmfmac43430-sdio.bin is needed for wifi on the
  StarFive VisionFive board which uses the starfive kernel flavor.

  The file was available in Jammy and only recently removed from Mantic.

  File debian/config/linux-firmware/riscv64/exclude.fwinfo is excluding
  it cyfmac43430-sdio.clm_blob which file WHENCE links to
  brcmfmac43430-sdio.bin. So this file needs to change.

  [Fix]

  Include cypress/cyfmac firmware files in firmware packages.

  [Test Case]

  Check that wifi is functional.

  [Where Problems Could Occur]

  Potential wifi problems on platforms that are using the brcmfmac
  driver.
