The Issue
When I'm using apt on Kali Linux 2022 at Lenovo ThinkPad X230T the following warning messages appear.
sudo apt install --reinstall firmware-misc-nonfree
...update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-5.18.0-kali7-amd64

The Solution
The solution is to manually download and install the missing Kernel modules from the git.kernel.org tree.
mkdir ~/Downloads/i915-missing && cd ~/Downloads/i915-missing
PACKAGES=(
"skl_guc_69.0.3.bin" "bxt_guc_69.0.3.bin" "kbl_guc_69.0.3.bin" "glk_guc_69.0.3.bin"
"kbl_guc_69.0.3.bin" "kbl_guc_69.0.3.bin" "cml_guc_69.0.3.bin" "icl_guc_69.0.3.bin"
"ehl_guc_69.0.3.bin" "ehl_guc_69.0.3.bin" "tgl_guc_69.0.3.bin" "tgl_guc_69.0.3.bin"
"dg1_guc_69.0.3.bin" "tgl_guc_69.0.3.bin" "adlp_guc_69.0.3.bin" "adlp_dmc_ver2_14.bin"
)
for PKG in "${PACKAGES[@]}"; do \
wget "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/tree/i915/${PKG}"; \
done
sudo cp -nv *.bin /lib/firmware/i915/
sudo update-initramfs -u -k all
Now you can test again whether the warning message appears.
sudo apt install --reinstall firmware-misc-nonfree
