Debian does not set Fedora policy.  The relevant Fedora policy is, I believe,
clearly indicated here:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#No_inclusion_of_pre-built_binaries_or_libraries

Note that there are exceptions listed to that policy.  I don't believe that an
argument towards having this accepted as firmware would succeed, honestly.  I
also don't believe this falls under the exceptions relating to
cross-compilation environments.  If you believe this package deserves an
additional exception, you are welcome to bring the matter before the Packaging
Committee.  The next meeting is Tuesday, March 31 at 17:00UTC.
