[linux-dvb] [OT] request_firmware()

[Thomas Kaiser]

Hello

I know this is the wrong list to ask, but you use this function (see subject) 
and I think somebody can answer my question.

Why does request_firmware need a device as parameter?
int request_firmware(const struct firmware **fw, const char *name,
		     struct device *device);

I thought request_firmware just loads the firmware in the struct firmware?

Thanks,

Thomas
