Subject: [PATCH] brcmfmac: Remove recursion from firmware load error handling

Before this commit brcmf_fw_request_done would call
brcmf_fw_request_next_item to load the next item, which on an error would
call brcmf_fw_request_done, which if the error is recoverable (*) will
then continue calling brcmf_fw_request_next_item for the next item again
which on an error will call brcmf_fw_request_done again...

This does not blow up because we only have a limited number of items so
we never recurse too deep. But the recursion is still quite ugly and
frankly is giving me a headache, so lets fix this.

This commit fixes this by removing brcmf_fw_request_next_item and by
making brcmf_fw_get_firmwares and brcmf_fw_request_done directly call
firmware_request_nowait resp. firmware_request themselves.

*) brcmf_fw_request_nvram_done fallback path succeeds or
   BRCMF_FW_REQF_OPTIONAL is set
