Subject: [PATCH 2/2] ASoC: cs35l56: Don't overwrite a patched firmware

Only attempt to download wmfw/bin files to a non-secured part if
it reports FIRMWARE_MISSING. If FIRMWARE_MISSING is false the
firmware has already been patched and overwriting the patch could
corrupt the running firmware.

For a secured part the wmfw/bin can be downloaded even if
FIRMWARE_MISSING is false, because they will only patch tunings.
