H A Drequest_firmware.rst5d42c96e Wed Mar 21 17:34:29 CDT 2018 Luis R. Rodriguez <mcgrof@kernel.org> firmware: add firmware_request_cache() to help with cache on reboot

Some devices have an optimization in place to enable the firmware to
be retaineed during a system reboot, so after reboot the device can skip
requesting and loading the firmware. This can save up to 1s in load
time. The mt7601u 802.11 device happens to be such a device.

When these devices retain the firmware on a reboot and then suspend
they can miss looking for the firmware on resume. To help with this we
need a way to cache the firmware when such an optimization has taken
place.
