Yes, there is a change to drop the target rule ‘firmware_install’ [1]. 
I’ve noticed also [2] but in the end it seems the rule is finally 
dropped:

  /usr/src/linux-4.12.12-gentoo/scripts/Makefile.fwinst    ...  exists
  /usr/src/linux-4.14.4-gentoo/scripts/Makefile.fwinst     ...  no such file 

To check it’s there look for ‘Other generic targets’ in kernel dir:

    sudo make help

or just grep:

    grep -q 'firmware_install' /usr/src/linux/Makefile
