This patch implements a simple cache for the firmware files when CONFIG_PM is defined.
This patch changes get_firmware(), free_firmware() and adds
free_firmware_cache(). The first two functions implement a very
simple cache and the latter is used to actually release all the stored
firmwares when the module is unloaded.
When CONFIG_PM is not enabled those functions act as before, that is
free_firmware() releases the firmware immediately and
free_firmware_cache() does nothing.
