Subject: [PATCH 09/27] firmware_class: make request_firmware_nowait more useful

From: Johannes Berg <johannes@...solutions.net>

Unfortunately, one cannot hold on to the struct firmware
that request_firmware_nowait() hands off, which is needed
in some cases. Allow this by requiring the callback to
free it (via release_firmware).

Additionally, give it a gfp_t parameter -- all the current
users call it from a GFP_KERNEL context so the GFP_ATOMIC
isn't necessary. This also marks an API break which is
useful in a sense, although that is obviously not the
primary purpose of this change.
