[PATCHv2 1/2] firmware: Enable pre-allocated buffer support in driver_data

From: yi1 . li
Date: Sat May 20 2017 - 02:53:28 EST


From: Yi Li <yi1.li@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This enables the equivalent feature of the legacy request_firmware_into_buf
to driver_data, so caller can allocate and manage the firmware buffer
instead of by driver_data class internally. The caller need to setup
alloc_buf and alloc_buf_size in the @driver_data_req_params structure.
