This patch always let firmware_buf own the pages buffer allocated inside firmware_data_write, and add all instances of firmware_buf into the firmware cache global list. Also introduce one private field in 'struct firmware', so release_firmware will see the instance of firmware_buf associated with the current firmware instance, then just 'free' the instance of firmware_buf. The firmware_buf instance represents one pages buffer for one firmware image, so lots of firmware loading requests can share the same firmware_buf instance if they request the same firmware image file. This patch will make implementation of the following cache_firmware/ uncache_firmware very easy and simple. In fact, the patch improves request_formware/release_firmware: - only request userspace to write firmware image once if several devices share one same firmware image and its drivers call request_firmware concurrently.
