Driver core fixes for 5.9-rc5

Here are some small driver core and debugfs fixes for 5.9-rc5

Included in here are:
	- firmware loader memory leak fix
	- firmware loader testing fixes for non-EFI systems
	- device link locking fixes found by lockdep
	- kobject_del() bugfix that has been affecting some callers
	- debugfs minor fix

All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
issues.
