firmware loader: Fix the race FW_STATUS_DONE is followed by class_timeout
There is a race as below when calling request_firmware(): CPU1 CPU2 write 0 > loading mutex_lock(&fw_lock) ... set_bit FW_STATUS_DONE class_timeout is coming set_bit FW_STATUS_ABORT complete_all &completion ... mutex_unlock(&fw_lock) In this time, the bit FW_STATUS_DONE and FW_STATUS_ABORT are set, and request_firmware() will return failure due to condition in _request_firmware_load(): if (!buf->size || test_bit(FW_STATUS_ABORT, &buf->status)) retval = -ENOENT; But from the above scenerio, it should be a successful requesting. So we need judge if the bit FW_STATUS_DONE is already set before calling fw_load_abort() in timeout function. As Ming's proposal, we need change the timer into sched_work to benefit from using &fw_lock mutex also.
