31 * Loadable firmware support.
32 *
33 * Firmware images are embedded in kernel loadable modules that can
34 * be loaded on-demand or pre-loaded as desired. Modules may contain
35 * one or more firmware images that are stored as opaque data arrays
36 * and registered with a unique string name. Consumers request
37 * firmware by name with held references counted to use in disallowing
38 * module/data unload.
39 *
40 * When multiple images are stored in one module the one image is
41 * treated as the master with the other images holding references
42 * to it. This means that to unload the module each dependent/subimage
43 * must first have its references removed.
