Subject: [PATCH 20/64] firmware: pcmcia/ds: prepare for FIRMWARE_NAME_MAX removal

From: Samuel Ortiz <sameo@...ux.intel.com>

We're going to remove the FIRMWARE_NAME_MAX definition in order to avoid any
firmware name length restriction.
With the FIRMWARE_NAME_MAX removal, the ds.c reference becomes useless as we
dont need to check for the firmware name length anymore.
