[PATCH] release_firmware() fixes
Use release_firmware() to free requested resources.
According to Documentation/firmware_class/README the request_firmware()
call should be followed by a release_firmware(). Some drivers do not
however free the firmware previously allocated with request_firmware().
This patch tries to fix this by making sure that release_firmware() is used
as expected.
