[RFT 5/7] firmware: ensure the firmware cache is not used on incompatible calls

[Luis R. Rodriguez]

request_firmware_into_buf() explicitly disables the firmware cache,
meanwhile the firmware cache cannot be used when request_firmware_nowait()
is used without the uevent. Enforce a sanity check for this to avoid future
issues undocumented behaviours should misuses of the firmware cache
happen later.
