All microcode runs a basic validation after it's been loaded. Each
IP block as part of init will run both.

Introduce a wrapper for request_firmware and amdgpu_ucode_validate.
This wrapper will also remap any error codes from request_firmware
to -ENODEV. This is so that early_init will fail if firmware couldn't
be loaded instead of the IP block being disabled.

'load' also takes a different meaning of loading firmware to ASIC. Maybe keep it as 'get' and keep another corresponding common 'put' for release_firmware?

Thanks,
Lijo
