2 * This module provides an interface to trigger and test firmware loading.
4 * It is designed to be used for basic evaluation of the firmware loading
5 * subsystem (for example when validating firmware verification). It lacks
6 * any extra dependencies, and will not normally be loaded by the system
7 * unless explicitly requested by name.
