there are several debug prints in firmware_loader/main.c:

./main.c:207: pr_debug("%s: fw-%s fw_priv=%p\n", __func__, fw_name, fw_priv);
./main.c:245: pr_debug("batched request - sharing the same struct fw_priv and lookup for multiple requests\n");
./main.c:269: pr_debug("%s: fw-%s fw_priv=%p data=%p size=%u\n",
./main.c:594: pr_debug("%s: fw-%s fw_priv=%p data=%p size=%u\n",
./main.c:605: pr_debug("%s: fw_name-%s devm-%p released\n",
./main.c:1175: pr_debug("%s: %s\n", __func__, fw_name);
./main.c:1181: pr_debug("%s: %s ret=%d\n", __func__, fw_name, ret);
./main.c:1214: pr_debug("%s: %s\n", __func__, fw_name);
./main.c:1272: pr_debug("%s: fw: %s\n", __func__, name);
./main.c:1389: pr_debug("%s\n", __func__);
./main.c:1415: pr_debug("%s\n", __func__);
