Subject: [PATCH] firmware_class: make firmware caching configurable
Date:   Wed, 13 Nov 2019 13:01:13 -0800
Message-Id: <20191113210124.59909-1-salyzyn@android.com>

Precedence: bulk

Because firmware caching generates uevent messages that are sent over
a netlink socket, it can prevent suspend on many platforms.  It's
also not always useful, so make it a configurable option.
