Danilo Krummrich a23b018c3b firmware_loader: fix soundness issue in request_internal
`request_internal` must be called with one of the following function
pointers: request_firmware(), firmware_request_nowarn(),
firmware_request_platform() or request_firmware_direct().

The previous `FwFunc` alias did not guarantee this, which is unsound.

In order to fix this up, implement `FwFunc` as new type with a
corresponding type invariant.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
