When you do such hardware support addition, you need to register them
inside nixos/modules/installer/scan/{not-,}detected.nix .  These files
are used to provide your firmware to all installations medium, and
avoid adding them inside all user system if you can ensure that they
are detected by nixos-hardware-scan.

The goal of these files is to make things easy for user which are
first starting with NixOS.  So please fill them appropriately ;)
