Please note that this is not tested yet, as I don't have access to a matching
firmware file.
This submission is to gather general feedback from the maintainers and then
Richard will do the actual testing, while I'll do the development.
This patch is should not have any impact beyond moving from request_firmware()
to request_firmware_nowait() and the involved code reshuffle.
what are we achieving by moving to async ver of the firmware load ? MHI
boot flow can not do anything until BHI load is over. Is the intention
eventually to enable firmware fallback mechanism and manually load the
firmware ?
