[PATCH 0/9] Loading optional firmware v4

[Andres Rodriguez]

Hey Everyone,

This is a trimmed down version of v3 that contains the changes for which we
have agreement. Changes that raised concern are being shifted to a followup
series, mainly changes to the async firmware API.

Inline feedback I received in these patches has also been addressed, thanks
everyone that chimed in.

I'll be following up with some proposals for the async API. Hopefully we can
end up with something that is not "the least bad" option.

This series can be found in the for-luis-v4 branch of:
