The way I read it, Adam is removing firmware files that current Fedora
kernels won't load, ever.

For example, we currently have these files in the package:

/usr/lib/firmware/iwlwifi-7265D-22.ucode.xz
/usr/lib/firmware/iwlwifi-7265D-27.ucode.xz
/usr/lib/firmware/iwlwifi-7265D-29.ucode.xz

And Adam is only deleting the two older ones.

Thanks,
Florian
