firmware: Fix an oops on reading fw_priv->fw in sysfs loading file

This oops was reported recently:
firmware_loading_store+0xf9/0x17b
dev_attr_store+0x20/0x22
sysfs_write_file+0x101/0x134
vfs_write+0xac/0xf3
sys_write+0x4a/0x6e
system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b

The complete backtrace was unfortunately not captured, but details can be found
here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=769920

The cause is fairly clear.

Its caused by the fact that firmware_loading_store has a case 0 in its
switch statement that reads and writes the fw_priv->fw poniter without the
protection of the fw_lock mutex.  since there is a window between the time that
_request_firmware sets fw_priv->fw to NULL and the time the corresponding sysfs
file is unregistered, its possible for a user space application to race in, and
write a zero to the loading file, causing a NULL dereference in
firmware_loading_store.  Fix it by extending the protection of the fw_lock mutex
to cover all of the firware_loading_store function.
