Followup question... while I have no objections to compressing firmware files, is there any process in place to trim the firmware file set? Are we including anything where we don't enable the driver in the kernel, for instance? Maybe? And maybe it only saves a tiny amount of space, but just curious if there is any effort on that front.

I count four +1 votes after 12 days.

APPROVED (+4, 0, -0)
