Subject: [PATCH] Revert "ath10k: activate user space firmware loading again"
 This reverts commit c0cc00f250e19c717fc9cdbdb7f55aaa569c7498.

  Huh ? That fixes nothing but introduce *again* flooding users
  dmesg with 'strange' firmware loading failures.
  As example a hw1.0 QCA9377 card floods with:

  ...
  ath10k_pci 0000:03:00.0: Direct firmware load for ath10k/pre-cal-pci-0000:03:00.0.bin failed with error -2
  ath10k_pci 0000:03:00.0: Direct firmware load for ath10k/cal-pci-0000:03:00.0.bin failed with error -2
  ath10k_pci 0000:03:00.0: Direct firmware load for ath10k/QCA9377/hw1.0/firmware-6.bin failed with error -2
  ...
