Ming Lei 28eefa750b firmware loader: fix races during loading firmware
This patch fixes two races in loading firmware:

1, FW_STATUS_DONE should be set before waking up the task waitting
on _request_firmware_load, otherwise FW_STATUS_ABORT may be
thought as DONE mistakenly.

2, Inside _request_firmware_load(), there is a small window between
wait_for_completion() and mutex_lock(&fw_lock), and 'echo 1 > loading'
still may happen during the period, so this patch checks FW_STATUS_DONE
to prevent pages' buffer completed from being freed in firmware_loading_store.
