I'm struggling with the logic here a little bit.

You take this function which calls qcom_mtd_load_no_init();

and then turn it into

Surely you want to qcom_mdt_load_no_init ?

On current kernel
return __qcom_mdt_load(ctx->dev, fw, firmware, mem_region, ctx,
		       mem_phys, ctx->mem_size,
		       reloc_base, true);

but that's a functional change

> +}
> +EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(qcom_mdt_pas_load);
the no_init version of this looks like this:

int qcom_mdt_load_no_init(struct device *dev, const struct firmware *fw,
                           const char *firmware, int pas_id,
                           void *mem_region, phys_addr_t mem_phys,
                           size_t mem_size, phys_addr_t *reloc_base)
{
         return __qcom_mdt_load(dev, fw, firmware, pas_id, mem_region,
			       mem_phys, mem_size, reloc_base, false);
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(qcom_mdt_load_no_init);

So is it really the intention of this patch to change the callsites 
where qcom_mdt_pas_load() away from the init version to the no_init 
version ?

Maybe its a symptom of patch collision but hmm, having a hard time 
cherry-picking this to test.
