firmware directory missing (/sys/class/firmware/xxx/loading&data)

Hi,

    init_completion(&data->fw_loaded);
    err = request_firmware_nowait(THIS_MODULE, FW_ACTION_HOTPLUG,
                      FIRMWARE_NAME, &spi->dev,
                      GFP_KERNEL, spi, firmware_load);
    if (err) {
        dev_err(&spi->dev, "Firmware loading failed with %d!\n", err);
        return err;
    }

I have the above code snippet in the probe, everything is successful but in the firware directory I dont get any xxx directory being created.

My kernel is 2.6.37, does the above call make entries in firmware directory ? Or is that Im missing something ?

Thanks And Regards,

Mike
