This patch refactor code to first load all firmware blobs

Nice, I like this! Just some style details below.
Thanks. Sure will correct.

Also make a trivial change in a error log.

I'm happy to accept these changes if they better describe the errors,
but please send them in a separate patch in that case - and please don't
line break that second print.
OK. Will reconsider.

Also your comment tend to tell the story of your change, that's what the
commit message is for, the comment should describe the code regardless
of history;

I think it makes sense to have a comment in the lines of:

/* Load the firmware segments */
OK.

I originally did something similar, but ran into some issue - so I will
test this on 8974 and 8916 as soon as my devboards are back online.
OK
