Bug Description

[Impact]
Users install the focal kernel on the bionic, the sof driver
in focal kernel will fail to load the tplg files.

[Fix]
generate the symbollinks according to the requirement of sof driver
in the focal kernel.

[Test Case]
booting the focal kernel on bionic, the sof driver could
load the tplg successfully, and the audio works well.

[Regression Risk]
Low, the bionic kernel will still load sof-hda-generic.tplg,
there is no any impact on the original bionic kernel + linux-firmware.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-bionic to verification-done-bionic. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-bionic. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping!

On a Dell machine with Bionic on it, enable the proposed, sudo apt-get update; sudo apt install linux-firmware, now the linux-firmware-1.173.19 is installed.

First check if those 2 symbollink exists by ls -la /lib/firmware/intel/sof-tplg/

Then install the linux-kernel-5.4 on the bionic, boot the system with 5.4 kernel and check dmesg, there is no "tplg is missing" errors in the log and audio works fine.

Verified the bug is fixed by 1.173.19.
