50 * mod_firmware_load - load sound driver firmware
51 * @fn: filename
52 * @fp: return for the buffer.
54 * Load the firmware for a sound module (up to 128K) into a buffer.
55 * The buffer is returned in *fp. It is allocated with vmalloc so is
56 * virtually linear and not DMAable. The caller should free it with
57 * vfree when finished.
59 * The length of the buffer is returned on a successful load, the
60 * value zero on a failure.
62 * Caution: This API is not recommended. Firmware should be loaded via
63 * request_firmware.
