[SRU Justification]
[Impact]
Missing firmware for Realtek RTL8153 Based USB Ethernet Adapters, which is supported by linux-generic-hwe-18.04 kernel (currently v5.4).
[Fix]
Two upstream commit necessary:
* commit b27d12383e7a ("rtl_nic: add firmware files for RTL8153")
* commit 6f89735800fe ("rtl_nic: update firmware for RTL8153A")
[Test Case]
Without firmware, drive probe would fail with:
$ dmesg | grep firmware | grep rtl8153
r8152 2-4.1:1.0: firmware: failed to load rtl_nic/rtl8153a-2.fw (-2)
r8152 2-4.1:1.0: Direct firmware load for rtl_nic/rtl8153a-2.fw failed with error -2
r8152 2-4.1:1.0: unable to load firmware patch rtl_nic/rtl8153a-2.fw (-2)
With firmware, it should succeed:
$ dmesg | grep rtl8152
r8152 2-1:1.0: load rtl8153a-3 v2 02/07/20 successfully
r8152 2-1:1.0 eth0: v1.11.11
r8152 2-1:1.0 enp0s20f0u1: renamed from eth0
[Where problems could occur]
While this introduces new firmware blobs and enabled devices supported
by new kernels, it should have little effect on existing systems, but
with new devices up and running, it may still affect power consumptions,
ability to enter deep suspend, etc.
[Other Info]
RTL8153 firmware has been available on Eoan and newer, so only Bionic is
nominated.
