[PATCH v2 2/4] firmware_loader: Move module refcounts to allow unloading

There is a newer version of this series
[PATCH v2 2/4] firmware_loader: Move module refcounts to allow unloading
Posted by Dionna Glaze 3 weeks, 2 days ago 
If a kernel module registers a firmware upload API ops set, then it's
unable to be moved due to effectively a cyclic reference that the module
depends on the upload which depends on the module.

Instead, only require the try_module_get when an upload is requested to
disallow unloading a module only while the upload is in progress.

Fixes: 97730bbb242c ("firmware_loader: Add firmware-upload support")
