Make zynqmp_firmware driver as optional to disable it, if user don't
want to use default zynqmp firmware interface.


This patch on it own is simple and looks fine. However I expect the
single binary to work with and without this option on the same platform.
If zynqmp_firmware is not critical, the system should continue to work
fine either way. The zynqmp_firmware driver should gracefully exit with
error(if any).


Sure. Will address it in next version.

Thanks,
Jolly Shah
