fw_state_aborted() should have already marked the state aborted
and the check at the firmware_loading_store() should catch this
case ... all of this is done with fw_lock lock held ...

However I am seeing the following over and over again in the
log - hence I think it is safer to check the aborted status
in __fw_load_abort().

? __list_del_entry_valid+0xe0/0xf0
[  348.604808][T12994]  __list_del_entry_valid+0xe0/0xf0
[  348.610020][T12994]  firmware_loading_store+0x141/0x650
[  348.615761][T12994]  ? firmware_data_write+0x4e0/0x4e0
[  348.621064][T12994]  ? sysfs_file_ops+0x1c0/0x1c0
[  348.625921][T12994]  dev_attr_store+0x50/0x80

Also the fallback logic takes actions based on errors as in
fw_load_sysfs_fallback() that returns -EAGAIN which would
trigger request_firmware() again.

Based on all of this I think this fix is needed, if only I can
test for sure.
