From e771d1aafb92aebe46fcd30d30afa504faee4335 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ming Lei Date: Mon, 27 May 2013 18:30:03 +0800 Subject: driver core: firmware loader: don't cache FW_ACTION_NOHOTPLUG firmware Generally there are only two drivers which don't need uevent to handle firmware loading, so don't cache these firmwares during suspend for these drivers since doing that may block firmware loading forever. Both the two drivers are involved in private firmware images, so they don't hit in direct loading too.
