Subject: [media] c8sectpfe: Remove select on CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER_FALLBACK

From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>

commit 79f5b6ae960d380c829fb67d5dadcd1d025d2775 upstream.

c8sectpfe driver selects CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER_FALLBACK by some
reason, but this option is known to be harmful, leading to minutes of
stalls at boot time.  The option was intended for only compatibility
for an old exotic system that mandates the udev interaction, and not a
thing a driver selects by itself.  Let's remove it.

Fixes: 850a3f7d5911 ('[media] c8sectpfe: Add Kconfig and Makefile for the driver')
