Thank you for the update, I only have a couple of nit-picks and a set of questions on when firmware is supposed to be downloaded. See below.

Since you have an interaction with userspace for the firmware, and firmware download takes time, you would want to do this as early as possible. Usually the component probe is part of the card creation, so you could add card-related or control related things. Downloading firmware does not strike me as a card-related activity? Another question is whether the firmware needs to be downloaded again during system/pm_runtime resume? That may depend on how power is managed at the hardware level, but in theory an SDCA device should report to the host whether the firmware is still valid or needs to be downloaded. > + > +out: > + if (fw_entry) > + release_firmware(fw_entry); > + return 0; > +}
