Bug Description
[Impact]
Some wireless Intel cards that use the iwlmvm driver are not available during installation.
[Test Case]
Boot up the Ubuntu installer on a system with an iwlmvm adapter, and try using the wireless connection.
[Fix]
Add the missing sub-module to debian.
[Regression Potential]
As we're including a new sub-module, this change makes the installer susceptible to bugs present in the iwlmvm driver. Other than that, this change should not introduce any new regressions as it doesn't change any driver code.
