    firmware: fix checking for return values for fw_add_devm_name() · d15d7311
    Luis R. Rodriguez authored
    Currently fw_add_devm_name() returns 1 if the firmware cache
    was already set. This makes it complicated for us to check for
    correctness. It is actually non-fatal if the firmware cache
    is already setup, so just return 0, and simplify the checkers.
    
    fw_add_devm_name() adds device's name onto the devres for the
    device so that prior to suspend we cache the firmware onto memory,
    so that on resume the firmware is reliably available. We never
    were checking for success for this call though, meaning in some
    really rare cases we my have never setup the firmware cache for
    a device, which could in turn make resume fail.
    
    This is all theoretical, no known issues have been reported.
    This small issue has been present way since the addition of the
    devres firmware cache names on v3.7.
