firmware: ensure the firmware cache is not used on incompatible calls

Browse source 
request_firmware_into_buf() explicitly disables the firmware cache,
meanwhile the firmware cache cannot be used when request_firmware_nowait()
is used without the uevent. Enforce a sanity check for this to avoid future
issues undocumented behaviours should misuses of the firmware cache
happen later.

One of the reasons we want to enforce this is the firmware cache is
used for helping with suspend/resume, and if incompatible calls use it
they can stall suspend.
