Defer the loading of firmware files to the chip-specific part of secure
boot. This allows implementations to retry loading firmware if the first
attempt failed ; for the GM200 implementation, this happens when trying
to reset a falcon, typically in reaction to GR init.
Firmware loading may fail for a variety of reasons, such as the
filesystem where they reside not being ready at init time. This new
behavior allows GR to be initialized the next time we try to use it if
the firmware has become available.

On GM200 and later GPUs, firmware for some essential falcons (notably
GR ones) must be authenticated by a NVIDIA-produced signature and
loaded by a high-secure falcon in order to be able to access privileged
registers, in a process known as Secure Boot.
Secure Boot requires building a binary blob containing the firmwares
and signatures of the falcons to be loaded. This blob is then given to
a high-secure falcon running a signed loader firmware that copies the
blob into a write-protected region, checks that the signatures are
valid, and finally loads the verified firmware into the managed falcons
and switches them to privileged mode.
This patch adds infrastructure code to support this process on chips
that require it.
v2:
- The IRQ mask of the PMU falcon was left - replace it with the proper
irq_mask variable.
- The falcon reset procedure expecting a falcon in an initialized state,
which was accidentally provided by the PMU subdev. Make sure that
secboot can manage the falcon on its own.
