[impact]
This was discovered at a customer site and affects all of their Bionic installs that have Micron NVME drives.
The version of nvme-cli present in Ubuntu 18.04 Bionic Beaver (1.5-1) does not include support to manage updating the firmware on Micron NVME drives.
$ rmadison nvme-cli -a amd64
nvme-cli | 1.5-1 | bionic/universe | amd64
nvme-cli | 1.6-1 | cosmic/universe | amd64
nvme-cli | 1.7-1 | disco/universe | amd64
Version 1.6-1 and later versions do include this support, and can be used by rebuilding the package from upstream source as a static binary... not ideal, but a workaround.
In lieu of pulling 1.7 from Disco back into Cosmic -> Bionic, can we cherry-pick this specific commit and backport it into 1.5 in Bionic?
Or, can we do a micro-release of 1.6 into Bionic?

[test case]
Install nvme-cli from Bionic, and attempt to update firmware for any Micron NVME drive, using a command similar to the below. It will fail, as the drive is not supported.
nvme micron select-download /dev/<nvme_

The specific commit that adds the needed support for these drives appears to be:
