It should include all the firmware files listed in the module info
(modinfo -F firmware) for all modules included in the initramfs, if they
exist.

If you also upgraded firmware-iwlwifi recently, in what order did you
upgrade that and initramfs-tools and the kernel?

Did update-initramfs warn that this file was missing?

(All the packages of firmware for Ethernet hardware do trigger an
initramfs rebuild, but firmware-iwlwifi does not because the iwlwifi
drivers are not normally included in an initramfs.)
