Merge branch 'nfp-FW-app-build-name-reporting'

Jakub Kicinski says:

====================
nfp: FW app build name reporting

This series adds reporting FW build name in ethtool -i.  Most
of the patches are restructuring where information caching is
done.  There is also a minor error path fix.

These are last few patches finishing the basic nfp_app support.
====================
