Using the MODULE_FIRMWARE tags of the drivers which are built.
This is actually the reason we haven't removed the legacy firmware from the source tree yet; it's waiting for me to implement that bit.
It shouldn't be hard to post-process the modules and list the firmware blobs that they reference. We'd just want to make it do the same for built-in drivers too.
