This is good, we should be able to save some duplication the current
MSA PIL as well by this.

We have two additional callers being merged, so changing the prototype
of qcom_mdt_load() will cause issues.

I think the best approach is to leave all callers untouched, make the
current implementation of qcom_mdt_load() internal and provide two
exported wrapper functions: qcom_mdt_load() and qcom_mdt_load_no_init().

These wrappers would call the internal function with the appropriate
value of the boolean.

We're not authenticating even with @auth=true, so please name this
"pas_init".

I like this empty line, please let me have it.
