From 9ebfbd45f9d4ee9cd72529cf99e5f300eb398e67 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Thu, 29 Oct 2009 12:36:02 +0100 Subject: firmware_class: make request_firmware_nowait more useful Unfortunately, one cannot hold on to the struct firmware that request_firmware_nowait() hands off, which is needed in some cases. Allow this by requiring the callback to free it (via release_firmware). Additionally, give it a gfp_t parameter -- all the current users call it from a GFP_KERNEL context so the GFP_ATOMIC isn't necessary. This also marks an API break which is useful in a sense, although that is obviously not the primary purpose of this change.
