[PATCH] firmware_loader: Fix labels with comma for builtin firmware

[PATCH] firmware_loader: Fix labels with comma for builtin firmware

[Linus Walleij]

Some firmware images contain a comma, such as:
EXTRA_FIRMWARE "brcm/brcmfmac4334-sdio.samsung,gt-s7710.txt"
as Broadcom firmware simply tags the device tree compatible
string at the end of the firmware parameter file. And the
compatible string contains a comma.

This doesn't play well with gas:

make[6]: *** [../scripts/Makefile.build:357: drivers/base/firmware_loader/builtin/brcm/brcmfmac4334-sdio.samsung,gt-s7710.txt.gen.o] Error 1

We need to get rid of the comma from the labels used by the
assembly stub generator.

Replacing a comma using GNU Make subst requires a helper
variable.

Loading should still work after this patch given that the original
firmware name is kept in a different variable FWNAME, and used as a
variable for the object entry.
