It was pulled in when initramfs-tools version 0.137 was merged from Debian according to the kernel doc http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/firmware_class/README Linux kernel will search firmware from "/lib/firmware/updates/" UTS_RELEASE, "/lib/firmware/updates", "/lib/firmware/" UTS_RELEASE, "/lib/firmware" But the add module function in initramfs-tools won't search the "/lib/firmware/updates".
