firmware: do not use fw_lock for fw_state protection
fw_lock is to use to protect 'corner cases' inside firmware_class. It is not exactly clear what those corner cases are nor what it exactly protects. fw_state can be used without needing the fw_lock to protect its state transition and wake ups. fw_state is holds the state in status and the completion is used to wake up all waiters (in this case that is the user land helper so only one). This operation has to be 'atomic' to avoid races. We can do this by using swait which takes care we don't miss any wake up. We use also swait instead of wait because don't need all the additional features wait provides. Note there some more cleanups possible after with this change. For example for !CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER we don't check for the state anymore. Let's to this in the next patch instead mingling to many changes into this one. And yes you get a gcc warning "‘__fw_state_check’ defined but not used [-Wunused-function] code." for the time beeing.
