The point of using firmware_request() is the firmware image is not
sent within the IOCTL itself but provided by a well known daemon, in
this case udevd.
We can make udevd the gate keeper of firmware images [not only eMMC
devices, but wifi and 3g modems as well] and ensure that only approved
and well-known images are sent to the devices.
