If you have a look at the linux-firmware recipe (meta/recipes-kernel/linux-
firmware/linux-firmware_git.bb) you'll see that it splits out this firmware blob
to a separate package called "linux-firmware-rtl8192cu", so add this to your
IMAGE_INSTALL instead of "linux-firmware" (which will pull in all firmware) and
you should be ready to go.
Cheers,
Paul
