sound: oss: Use kernel_read_file_from_path() for mod_firmware_load()
Since recently we have kernel_read_file_from_path(), and it's doing the same thing as our own home-baked mod_firmware_load(). Let's use the official API function and clean up the old code. Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>
