It's been observed that some firmware found in a Qualcomm SM8450 device has the hash table in a separate .bNN file. Use the newly extracted helper function to load this segment from the separate file, if it's determined that the hashes are not part of the already loaded firmware. In order to do this, the function needs access to the firmware basename and to provide more useful error messages a struct device to associate the errors with.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
