I kinda don't like the plural of firmware: "firmwares". Can we call
those
device_cache_fw_images
device_uncache_fw_images
or
device_cache_fw_blobs
or whatever?

Comment above the list_head and maybe call the list_head fw_names or so?

AFAICT kstrdup already copies the existing string, why do you need to
strcpy it again?

Invert check logic to save an indentation level:
if (ret)
goto free;
nc = alloc...

Same thing here: maybe check if on the last element on the list and
don't grab the lock then?

checkpatch says here:
WARNING: externs should be avoided in .c files
#181: FILE: drivers/base/firmware_class.c:1118:
+extern struct list_head dpm_list;
and I think it is correct. AFAICT, it should be included from
<drivers/base/power/power.h>...

No real need for that debug printk since you have one below.
