Apologize for the delay.

I'd like to avoid one more mutex in the driver,  I think some reordering
in the .probe and changing the firmware_request API could help. I'll
spend some time to dig more deeply into the problem.

See untested patch below (I have to simulate firmware load from ufs
partition on Debian).
