When i've known how USB defines firmware updates:
-- device appears with one firmware-loading ID;
 - after loading it disconnects, and reconnects;
-- new bus connect event, new ID, same hardware-device still plugged;
-- (TI USB) is set up with bloody configuration #1, while just
   uploaded firmware operates with configuration #2!

It's complete hardware setup of plugged device. WFT userspace doing
here? Before i've posted request_firmware() update -- *nothing*!
That is why i feel design, and your note is somehow wrong.

p.s. song about why ti-usb's firmware is in os-space, while
there at least 2 ROMs are in device, is more damn ugly.
