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