+Subject: [PATCH] brcmfmac: fix CLM load error for legacy chips when user
+ helper is enabled
+
+For legacy chips without CLM blob files, kernel with user helper function
+returns -EAGAIN when we request_firmware(), and then driver got failed
+when bringing up legacy chips. We expect the CLM blob file for legacy chip
+is not existence in firmware path, but the -ENOENT error is transferred to
+-EAGAIN in firmware_class.c with user helper.
+Because of that, we continue with CLM data currently present in firmware
+if getting error from doing request_firmware().
