+/**
+ * enum fw_opt - options to control firmware loading behaviour
+ *
+ * @FW_OPT_UEVENT: Enables the fallback mechanism to send a kobject uevent
+ *                  when the firmware is not found. Userspace is in charge
+ *                  to load the firmware using the sysfs loading facility.
+ * @FW_OPT_NOWAIT: Used to describe the firmware request is asynchronous.
+ * @FW_OPT_USERHELPER: Enable the fallback mechanism, in case the direct
+ *                     filesystem lookup fails at finding the firmware.
+ *                     For details refer to fw_sysfs_fallback().
+ * @FW_OPT_NO_WARN: Quiet, avoid printing warning messages.
+ * @FW_OPT_NOCACHE: Disables firmware caching. Firmware caching is used to
+ *                  cache the firmware upon suspend, so that upon resume
+ *                  races against the firmware file lookup on storage is
+ *                  avoided. Used for calls where the file may be too
+ *                  big, or where the driver takes charge of its own firmware
+ *                  caching mechanism.
+ * @FW_OPT_NOFALLBACK: Disable the fallback mechanism. Takes precedence over
+ *                     &FW_OPT_UEVENT and &FW_OPT_USERHELPER.
