OK. I took the fw == NULL check out of check_fw_sanity() (which is
called by download_fw()) and moved it instead to edge_startup() where we
call request_firmware().

Agreed. I described my guesses about steps 3 and 4 to Digi Tech Support
and heard back yesterday saying that they were correct. So in patchset
v7 I'm treating these as error conditions. Let me know if you disagree.
