In callbackfn_efi_capsule, you call request_firmware_nowait. When that
callback is invoked, I think that the /sys/class/firmware/efi-capsule-file
directory doesn't exist at all.

Good point, I don't know.
Who ever wrote this code should know this, can someone please provide
a use-case for how this is all supposed to work?
That would be Wilson.

Andy, here's the steps to load a capsule. I don't have a problem with
this, it's userspace driven, no autoloading of files in /lib/, and
works with sysfs.
Have any objection to it, I don't.
Thanks Greg

Introducing a kernel module to expose user helper interface for
user to upload capsule binaries. This module leverage the
request_firmware_nowait() to expose an interface to user.
Example steps to load the capsule binary:
