Why This File Exists

Repeatable hardware-adapter layer. Deep compatibility for every driver is out of scope; this atlas records patterns, probe lifecycles, bus glue, IRQ/DMA usage, and links back to core abstractions.

 * Some use cases in the kernel have a requirement so that no memory allocator
 * is involved as these calls take place early in boot process. An example is
 * the x86 CPU microcode loader. In these cases all the caller wants is to see
 * if the firmware was built-in and if so use it right away. This can be used
 * for such cases.
 *
 * This looks for the firmware in the built-in kernel. Only if the kernel was
 * built-in with the firmware you are looking for will this return successfully.
 *
 * Callers of this API do not need to use release_firmware() as the pointer to
 * the firmware is expected to be provided locally on the stack of the caller.
