[PATCH net-next 7/9] firmware_loader: Expand Firmware upload error codes

From: Kory Maincent <kory.maincent@bootlin.com>
Date: 2023-11-16 14:02:22
Also in: linux-devicetree, linux-doc, lkml
Subsystem: driver core, kobjects, debugfs and sysfs, firmware loader (request_firmware), the rest · Maintainers: Greg Kroah-Hartman, "Rafael J. Wysocki", Danilo Krummrich, Luis Chamberlain, Russ Weight, Linus Torvalds

No error code are available to signal an invalid firmware content.
Drivers that can check the firmware content validity can not return this
specific failure to the user-space

Expand the firmware error code with an additional code:
- "firmware invalid" code which can be used when the provided firmware
  is invalid
