Subject: Lattice ECP3 load firmware

Hi !

I noticed you (Stefan) are using request_firmware_nowait() call. This
means user needs to explicitly call it using

$ echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/lattice-ecp3.0/loading
$ cat lattice-ecp3.bit > /sys/class/firmware/lattice-ecp3.0/data
$ echo 0 > /sys/class/firmware/lattice-ecp3.0/loading

Or did I miss something ?
I would like to have it load the firmware bitstream when booting if
there is a specific .bit file in /lib/firmware. Maybe don't you want
to have this behaviour, though... ?

Thanks,
JM
