From: Ming Lei
Date: Thu Jun 06 2013 - 08:02:11 EST


Hi,

The 1st patch cancels exporting of cache_firmware and uncache_firmware.

The 2nd one simplifies holding module for request_firmware().

The 3rd one introduces one kernel option to allow distributions or users
to set their specific firmware search paths.

The 4th one don't allow to request firmware via relative path.

V1:
- 3/4: make code more clean, take the approach suggested by Takashi
- 4/4: introduce 4/4
