That is correct. I will do malloc just before calling
request_firmware_into_buf() API.

I'll fix all these typos.

Caller is trying to boot the rproc with a firmware binary. Caller should
know the size of binary that it wants to load to rproc core. Caller will
specify the binary size to rproc_boot(). Based on the size provided by
caller, rproc_boot() will then allocate that much memory and call
request_firmware_into_buf() with the size and allocated buffer. If the
caller doesn't provide minimum size rproc_load() will fail.
rproc_load() calls respective driver ops, for example: pru_load().
pru_load() [1] API checks the required size of firmware to load by
casting the buffer into Elf32_Ehdr and Elf32_Phdr and returns error if
size provided by caller is less than this.
if (offset + filesz > size) {
dev_dbg(dev, "truncated fw: need 0x%x avail 0x%zx\n",
offset + filesz, size);
ret = -EINVAL;
break;

Technically we can. But when we discussed this approach first in v1, you
had asked to keep the APIs similar to upstream linux. Upstream linux has
these two APIs so I kept it that way. If you want I can drop the first
API. Please let me know.
