[RESEND PATCH] wcn36xx: Allow firmware name to be overridden by DT

[RESEND PATCH] wcn36xx: Allow firmware name to be overridden by DT

[Bjorn Andersson]

The WLAN NV firmware blob differs between platforms, and possibly
devices, so add support in the wcn36xx driver for reading the path of
this file from DT in order to allow these files to live in a generic
file system (or linux-firmware).

For some reason the parent (wcnss_ctrl) also needs to upload this blob,
so rather than specifying the same information in both nodes wcn36xx
reads the string from the parent's of_node.

This was previously part of a series spanning multiple subsystems, picked up
tested-bys and resending alone in hope that it can be merged.

I included the value of ret to the error print to ease debugging.
Modified patch is soon in the pending branch, please take a look.
