Since the split elf blobs will always contain the hash segment, we rely on

Sure
the blob file to get the hash rather than assume that it will be present in
the mdt file. This change uses the hash index to read the appropriate elf
blob to get the hash segment.

This seems to duplicates parts of the loop in __qcom_mdt_load(), how
about breaking this out to a separate

static int mdt_load_segment(struct device *dev, const struct firmware *fw,
int idx, void *buf, size_t len, bool is_split)

Which either just memcpy from @fw or does the filename and loading
dance, based on @is_split?
Since mdt_load_segment won't know the name of the firmware without a global
variable
(which in turn will make it non-reentrant), the idea of creating such a
function and not passing
the actual name of the firmware seemed wrong.

Wouldn't you be able to pass "firmware" as an argument to the
load_segment function?
We can, which is what I guess you meant in the first place. What I thought
was that if we are creating something like mdt_load_segments passing
"firmware.mdt" with the index instead of "firmware.b<index>" seemed
kind of wrong, but I guess that is just a matter of the naming convention.
If we want to pass the firmware name in this function the code size will be
more or equal to
what we started with. If that is not a problem I can make the changes.

Perhaps I'm missing something here, I do expect that you would end with
code similar to the hunk you add here. But in doing so we should be able
to reuse that in the __qcom_mdt_load(). Or am I too optimistic?

(In particular I'm not fond of the fw_name dance and doing it twice is
worse)
If I am creating the firmware name inside this function then we should definitely
see a code reduction. I'll make the changes and push the new patchset soon.
