It is possible that during system boot when there multiple devices
attempting simultaneous initialization on a slow control bus the
download of firmware and tuning data may take a user perceivable amount
of time (a slow I2C bus with 4 amps this work could take over 2
seconds).
Adopt a pattern used in the ASoC driver and perform this activity in a
background thread so that interactive performance is not impaired. The
system_long_wq is a parallel workqueue and driver instances will perform
their firmware downloads in parallel to make best use of available bus
bandwidth.
