linux-firmware and linux-firmware-whence (meta package for mostly iwl firmwares) packages account for approx. 289 M install size on a F30 system, and linux-firmware for approx. 176 M on CentOS 7. Users needing these firmwares are eventually baremetal users and are not looking for a very minimal operating system base install like virtual image users are. Thus, a non-minimal OS element is better suited for them. Alternatively, it could be later considered a dedicated firmware element. This is inline with I8ce65e1d357d15e8ed8995ad1dcaea02bbd1986f.

Image building tools for OpenStack
diskimage-builder is a flexible suite of components for
building a wide-range of disk images, filesystem images and ramdisk
images for use with OpenStack.
This repository has the core functionality for building such images, both virtual and bare metal. Images are composed using elements; while fundamental elements are provided here, individual projects have the flexibility to customise the image build with their own elements.
For example:
$ DIB_RELEASE=trusty disk-image-create -o ubuntu-trusty.qcow2 vm ubuntuwill create a bootable Ubuntu Trusty based qcow2
image.
diskimage-builder is useful to anyone looking to produce
customised images for deployment into clouds. These tools are the
components of TripleO that are
responsible for building disk images. They are also used extensively to
build images for testing OpenStack itself, particularly with nodepool.
Platforms supported include Ubuntu, CentOS, RHEL and Fedora.
