Actually allnoconfig compiles fine given the code in question is needed only when
CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER is loaded, however it does fail to compile when
CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER is set, and its odd that 0-day did not pick that up.

I've fixed this by moving kill_pending_fw_fallback_reqs() up above in a
separate patch first.

Sure thing! Thanks for the review !
