I have the following during normal boot:

[    5.620796] Bluetooth: hci0: read Intel version: 370710018002030d00
[    5.620822] bluetooth hci0: Direct firmware load for intel/ibt-hw-37.7.10-fw-1.80.2.3.d.bseq failed with error -2
[    5.620827] Bluetooth: hci0 failed to open Intel firmware file: intel/ibt-hw-37.7.10-fw-1.80.2.3.d.bseq(-2)
[    5.620920] bluetooth hci0: Direct firmware load for intel/ibt-hw-37.7.bseq failed with error -2
[    5.620922] Bluetooth: hci0 failed to open default Intel fw file: intel/ibt-hw-37.7.bseq
[    5.629910] EXT4-fs (sda2): mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. Opts: (null)
[    5.629916] VFS: Mounted root (ext4 filesystem) readonly on device 8:2.

The driver is trying to load the firmware before root is mounted. Do I
really need an initramfs?

Thanks,
