Convert prism2_usb firmware loading to load firmware in pre-compiled
binary 'ihex' format rather than ascii 'srec' format. This moves the
srec processing and sorting of records out of kernel space into a
pre-compiler. The driver now just works with the binary image, but
still does the 'pda plugging' of that image at runtime, as required
by the prism hardware.
Some Notes:
- The firmware is now expected to be in the same 'ihex' (.fw) format
used by other drivers.
- The now driver assumes the data records are already sorted into ascending
address order.
- Plug and crc records are still recognised by special address locations
as in original srec processing.
- The srec S7 start address record is assumed to have been converted
into a data record with another special address location (0xff400000),
with the original start address being stored as a 4 byte data word
(little endian).

Move prism2 firmware loading from userspace into driver, using linux
request_firmware(). Firmware is now loaded (if available) on device
probing, before it is registered as a netdevice and advertised to userspace.
