Char/misc driver fixes for 4.10-rc7

Here are two bugfixes that resolve some reported issues.  One in the
firmware loader, that should fix the much-reported problem of crashes
with it.  The other is a hyperv fix for a reported regression.

Both have been in linux-next for a week or so with no reported issues.
