In the case of firmware-upload, an instance of struct fw_upload is
allocated in firmware_upload_register(). This data needs to be freed
in fw_dev_release(). Create a new fw_upload_free() function in
sysfs_upload.c to handle the firmware-upload specific memory frees
and incorporate the missing kfree call for the fw_upload structure.

The use of kmap() is being deprecated in favor of kmap_local_page().
Two main problems with kmap(): (1) It comes with an overhead as mapping
space is restricted and protected by a global lock for synchronization and
(2) kmap() also requires global TLB invalidation when the kmap’s pool
wraps and it might block when the mapping space is fully utilized until a
slot becomes available.
kmap_local_page() is preferred over kmap() and kmap_atomic(). Where it
cannot mechanically replace the latters, code refactor should be considered
(special care must be taken if kernel virtual addresses are aliases in
different contexts).
With kmap_local_page() the mappings are per thread, CPU local, can take
page faults, and can be called from any context (including interrupts).
Call kmap_local_page() in firmware_loader wherever kmap() is currently
used. In firmware_rw() use the helpers copy_{from,to}_page() instead of
open coding the local mappings + memcpy().
Successfully tested with "firmware" selftests on a QEMU/KVM 32-bits VM
with 4GB RAM, booting a kernel with HIGHMEM64GB enabled.

Move definitions required by sysfs.c from sysfs_upload.h to sysfs.h so
that sysfs.c does not need to include sysfs_upload.h.

Fix the CONFIGs around register_sysfs_loader(),
unregister_sysfs_loader(), register_firmware_config_sysctl(), and
unregister_firmware_config_sysctl(). The full definitions of the
register_sysfs_loader() and unregister_sysfs_loader() functions should
be used whenever CONFIG_FW_LOADER_SYSFS is defined. The
register_firmware_config_sysctl() and unregister_firmware_config_sysctl()
functions should be stubbed out unless CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER
CONFIG_SYSCTL are both defined.

Add additional sysfs nodes to monitor the transfer of firmware upload data
to the target device:
cancel: Write 1 to cancel the data transfer
error: Display error status for a failed firmware upload
remaining_size: Display the remaining amount of data to be transferred
status: Display the progress of the firmware upload

Extend the firmware subsystem to support a persistent sysfs interface that
userspace may use to initiate a firmware update. For example, FPGA based
PCIe cards load firmware and FPGA images from local FLASH when the card
boots. The images in FLASH may be updated with new images provided by the
user at his/her convenience.
A device driver may call firmware_upload_register() to expose persistent
"loading" and "data" sysfs files. These files are used in the same way as
the fallback sysfs "loading" and "data" files. When 0 is written to
"loading" to complete the write of firmware data, the data is transferred
to the lower-level driver using pre-registered call-back functions. The
data transfer is done in the context of a kernel worker thread.

In preparation for sharing the "loading" and "data" sysfs nodes with the
new firmware upload support, split out sysfs functionality from fallback.c
and fallback.h into sysfs.c and sysfs.h. This includes the firmware
class driver code that is associated with the sysfs files and the
fw_fallback_config support for the timeout sysfs node.
CONFIG_FW_LOADER_SYSFS is created and is selected by
CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER in order to include sysfs.o in
firmware_class-objs.
This is mostly just a code reorganization. There are a few symbols that
change in scope, and these can be identified by looking at the header
file changes. A few white-space warnings from checkpatch are also
addressed in this patch.
