test0r 20d349e2b5 bes2600: thread struct device * through factory request_firmware() call
Follow-up to \"bes2600: use request_firmware() for factory.txt read\".
That patch switched the factory calibration read path from filp_open()
+ kernel_read() to request_firmware(), but passed dev=NULL to
request_firmware() because factory_section_read_file() did not have a
struct device * in scope. The resulting logs carry the
'(NULL device *):' prefix and do not propagate a udev association.

Add a module-local static struct device * used as the firmware-class
load context, plus a small exported setter:

    static struct device *bes2600_factory_dev;
    void bes2600_factory_set_dev(struct device *dev);

Wire bes2600_factory_set_dev(&func->dev) from bes2600_sdio_probe(),
right after bes2600_platform_data_init() so the platform layer has
already had a chance to use the same struct device for its own
initialization.

factory_section_read_file() now passes bes2600_factory_dev (instead
of NULL) to request_firmware(). When the factory read happens before
probe (not currently the case on PineTab2) the pointer is still NULL
and request_firmware() accepts that; no regression.

No API changes to bes2600_get_factory_cali_data() callers. The
char *path parameter remains (it is the firmware-class name fed
straight to request_firmware()).

Tested-on: PineTab2 (BES2600WM + RK3566) running linux-pinetab2
6.19.10-danctnix1-1. Driver probes, factory data is read, and any
post-c5 factory diagnostics now carry the SDIO device identity
instead of '(NULL device *)'.

test0r b76c9904f8 bes2600: use request_firmware() for factory.txt read
The BES2600 factory calibration file (bes2600_factory.txt) was being read
via filp_open() + kernel_read() from a hard-coded absolute path baked in
at compile time via the FACTORY_PATH Makefile macro
(default: /lib/firmware/bes2600_factory.txt).

This had several problems:

1. Path mismatch - linux-firmware-style packaging (and danctnix 0.2-5
   device-pine64-pinetab2) ships the file at
   /lib/firmware/bes2600/bes2600_factory.txt, not /lib/firmware/. The
   driver logged '(NULL device *): read and check
   /lib/firmware/bes2600_factory.txt error' on every boot on PineTab2
   running linux-pinetab2 6.19.10-danctnix1-1.

2. Direct filesystem access via filp_open() / kernel_read() from a driver
   is an anti-pattern that upstream rejects: drivers should use
   request_firmware() to get binary data from userspace-managed firmware
   directories. request_firmware() natively searches the firmware_class
   path list (typically /lib/firmware + derivatives), associates the load
   with a uevent, and respects the firmware-loading infrastructure.

3. The (NULL device *) prefix in error messages indicated the absence of
   proper device-context logging. While this patch does not yet thread
   struct device through, the upstream path uses request_firmware() which
   works with dev=NULL and is the building block for a follow-up patch
   that adds per-chip device context.

Repoint the FACTORY_PATH default to the firmware-class name
(bes2600/bes2600_factory.txt) - request_firmware() prepends
/lib/firmware/ from the configured search paths. The macro remains
overridable at build time for non-standard deployments.

Rewrite factory_section_read_file() to:
  * Call request_firmware(&fw, path, NULL).
  * Size-check fw->size against FACTORY_MAX_SIZE.
  * memcpy the data into the caller's buffer.
  * Always call release_firmware() on exit.

The file write path (factory_section_write_file + kernel_write) is left
unchanged in this patch; it is the subject of a follow-up patch that
removes kernel_write and moves any remaining userspace-visible factory
configuration to a standard kernel-userspace boundary (debugfs or
nl80211 testmode).

No caller signature changes. No Makefile flag drops. Bisectable.

Tested-on: PineTab2 (BES2600WM + RK3566) running linux-pinetab2
6.19.10-danctnix1-1, deployed via /lib/modules/<ver>/extra/. Verified
post-reboot: original 'read and check /lib/firmware/bes2600_factory.txt
error' is gone; request_firmware reads the file successfully (a separate
factory_parse() bug, previously masked by the read failure, is now
exposed and tracked separately).
