Ah yes, initramfs-tools doesn't honor symlinks and dups the binaries :-(

firmware dir of orig initrd:
406M    firmware.orig/

firmware dir of de-duped initrd:
194M    firmware.dedup/

We might want to consider shipping an initramfs-hook script with the
firmware package that recreates the symlinks.
