This was removed upstream [1] and is highly unlikely to be added back.
Especially considering that the user space firmware loader is scheduled
to be removed sooner rather then later.

This most likely means d-i needs to be updated to use some kind of
different mechanism to detect missing firmware.

Kay, what is the recommended approach nowadays to detect such missing
firmware?
