This patch adds an additional feature to the firmware_class.c module.
To allow a unified method of specifying new firmware locations when
drivers request a firmware binary to update their devices with, we
have added the concept of a "fw override"

A fw override is a rule that matches firmware requests based on the
name of the device requesting the fw and what the filename for the
fw they are requesting is, and overrides their requests with a new
value.

Overrides are set up by piping a description of the override into
an attribute set up at /sys/class/firmware/fw_override.  The string
should be a null-deliminited list of the firmware name you want to
over ride, the new name to replace it with, and the device name that
you want the override to apply to.   For example you could set up
an override for a device called "my_device" so that any time it
requests a firmware called "my_fw.bin" it instead gets "new_fw.bin"
with the following command:

echo -e 'my_fw.bin\0new_fw.bin\0my_device\0' >
				/sys/class/firmware/fw_override

The device name is an optional field, and if no string is there it
will apply to ANY device requesting a firmware of that name.  For
example if you want all devices looking for my_fw.bin to get
new_fw.bin instead you might use this command:

echo -e 'my_fw.bin\0new_fw.bin\0\0' > /sys/class/firmware/fw_override

Existing overrides can be viewed by cat-ing that attribute and can
be overwritten with new rules at will.

To delete an override simply put an empty string in the new firmware
field and the matching rule will be removed. eg: to remove the rule
set up in the first above example, one might run this command.

echo -e 'my_fw.bin\0\0my_device\0' > /sys/class/firmware/fw_override

Note: To make this feature usable even when CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER
is not set, the firmware class is brought back.  However, "timeout"
and the other functionality remain disabled.
