Subject: [PATCH 0/2] soc: qcom: mdt_loader: Support loading non-split firmware

Typically the firmware files for the various remoteprocs is split in a number
of files. But in some releases these files are available in their unsplit form.

Extend the mdt loader to detect the unsplit firmware and load it transparently.

Also expose the function that compose the metadata header for validation and
use this from the modem remoteproc driver, so that it can support unsplit files
as well.
