[PATCH 7.1.y 1/2] firmware_loader: Add cancel helper for async requests

[Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>]

From: Cássio Gabriel <cassiogabrielcontato@gmail.com>

[ Upstream commit b9bdd68b8b979c7e9de58b2e7d21e1d7d932c755 ]

request_firmware_nowait() keeps the callback module pinned and holds
a device reference until the firmware work completes.

Callers still have no way to cancel or synchronize the queued callback
before tearing down their driver-private state.

Track scheduled async firmware work in an internal list and add
request_firmware_nowait_cancel(). The helper cancels work matching the
device, callback context and callback function. It cancels work that has
not started yet and waits for an already-running callback to return. If
the request has already completed, it is a no-op.

Keep the existing request_firmware_nowait() lifetime model manual. A
devres-managed variant can be layered on top separately if needed.
