Subject: [RFC PATCH 01/13] driver core: firmware loader: simplify pages ownership transfer
This patch doesn't transfer ownership of pages' buffer to the
instance of firmware until the firmware loading is completed,
which will simplify firmware_loading_store a lot, so help
to introduce the following cache_firmware and uncache_firmware
mechanism during system suspend-resume cycle.
In fact, this patch fixes one bug: if writing data into
firmware loader device is bypassed between writting 1 and 0 to
'loading', OOPS will be triggered without the patch.
Also add some comments to make code more readable.
