I am confused. Why do we need devm support, given that devm is only valid in probe() paths[*] and we do know that we do not want to load firmware in probe() paths because it may cause blocking?
[*] Yes, I know there are calls to devm* outside of probe() but I am pretty sure they are buggy unless they explicitly freed with devm* as well and then there is no point. IN all other cases it is likely wrong as it messes up with order of freeing resources.
Thanks.
