Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] firmware: selftest for request_firmware_into_buf

This patch series adds kernel selftest of request_firmware_into_buf.
The API was added to the kernel previously untested.

Changes from v1:
- Dropped demonstration patch for a race condition discovered
while testing request_firmare_into_buf.
The new test exposes a kernel opps with the firmware fallback mechanism that may
be fixed separate from these tests.
- minor whitespace formatting in patch
- added Ack's
- added "s" in commit message (changed selftest: to selftests:)

Scott Branden (2):
  test_firmware: add support for request_firmware_into_buf
  selftests: firmware: Add request_firmware_into_buf tests
