[PATCH 00/13] Introduce partial kernel_read_file() support

Hi,

Here's my attempt at clearing the path to partial read support in
kernel_read_file(), which fixes a number of issues along the way. I'm
still fighting with the firmware test suite (it doesn't seem to pass
for me even in stock v5.7... ?) But I don't want to block Scott's work[1]
any this week, so here's the series as it is currently.

The primary difference to Scott's approach is to avoid adding a new set of
functions and just adapt the existing APIs to deal with "offset". Also,
the fixes for the enum are first in the series so they can be backported
without the header file relocation.

I'll keep poking at the firmware tests...
