Subject[PATCH] firmware: add firmware to new device's devres list for second time cache
Date
Currently, firmware will only be chached if assign_firmware_buf() gets
called.

When a device loses its power or a USB device gets plugged to another
port under suspend, request_firmware() can still find cached firmware,
but firmware name no longer associates with the new device's devres.
So next time the system suspend, those firmware won't be cached.

Hence, we should add the firmware name to the devres when the firmware
is found in cache, to make the firmware cacheable next time.
