I just downgraded an XPS 9370 and then upgraded it again using gnome- software 3.28.1-0ubuntu4.18.04.8 and it works like I expected.

Test case: 1) Run a UEFI firmware update from Gnome software. 2) Make sure that the update disappears from the listing after pressing the update button. Original bug: Ubuntu 17.10 On a dell latitude 5580, the firmware update seems to not work while it actually does. 1. Gnome software reports there is a new firmware update. 2. I click "update now" 3. The update disappears for a few seconds, then reappears. 4. When I reboot my laptop, the laptop goes into firmware update modus, updates the firmware, and starts Ubuntu. What I expect: After clicking "update now", Gnome software tells me my computer has to restart the update. Either the update is listed and greyed out with a "reboot required" message, or the update is not visible.
