Hi,

> How about we follow the approach of Alpine Linux[1] and offer a standard, an extended and a virtual firmware for the x86/64 target?

FYI that pull request added 27 firmware ASIC blobs, thus increased x86/64
image from 10 MiB to 41 MiB, but actually just 1 firmware ASIC blob
mlxsw_spectrum-13.2010.1006.mfa2 (1.6MiB) is needed, so I would instead recommend to
fix that mlx firmware package and call it a day?

Cheers,

Petr
