Thanks for responding :)
The fact that no-one is told to use the new right way (tm) in any
available documentation does not help matters improve. One issue is
that the 'asynchronous' interface seems to rely on the same 'dodgy'
timeout mechanism as the original request_firmware() call... Looks
like the lack of a maintainer should be the opportunity for a rework
of this API.
