[PATCH 2/2] media: s5p-mfc: fix lock confection - request_firmware() once and keep state

Driver calls request_firmware() whenever the device is opened for the
first time. As the device gets opened and closed, dev->num_inst == 1
is true several times. This is not necessary since the firmware is saved
in the fw_buf. s5p_mfc_load_firmware() copies the buffer returned by
the request_firmware() to dev->fw_buf.
fw_buf sticks around until it gets released from s5p_mfc_remove(), hence
there is no need to keep requesting firmware and copying it to fw_buf.
This might have been overlooked when changes are made to free fw_buf from
the device release interface s5p_mfc_release().
Fix s5p_mfc_load_firmware() to call request_firmware() once and keep state.
Change _probe() to load firmware once fw_buf has been allocated.
s5p_mfc_open() and it continues to call s5p_mfc_load_firmware() and init
hardware which is the step where firmware is written to the device.
This addresses the mfc_mutex contention due to repeated request_firmware()
calls from open() in the following circular locking warning:
