<pre>I'm confused about this also because developers sometimes comment in bug
reports that the firmware isn't being loaded, and to try loading it to see if
the problem still happens. But upstream does not have firmware loading enabled
by default, and doing so taints the kernel, preventing any other kernel bugs
from being reportable by most distro automated reporting systems.
So I don't really grok the recommendations compared to the defaults. This is
from kernel 4.13.10.

0=never [default], 1=if available, 2=required) (int)</pre>
