[Nouveau] [PATCH] drm/nouveau/xtensa: firmware size needs to be 0x40000 no matter what

The current logic is wrong since we send fw->size >> 8 to the
card. Rounding the size up by 0x100 and 0x1000 didn't seem to help,
the card still hung, so go back to what the blob does -- 0x40000.

What's currently in the tree causes the card to hang.

Looking back at all the patches I sent, I always had the firmware size
at 0x40000. But I never got around to testing what had actually made
it into the tree, so my bad. I tried doing ALING(fw->size, 0x100)
(since we send the size >> 8) and also ALIGN(fw->size, 0x1000) (page
size, who knows), with no effect. Might as well just leave it
hard-coded at 0x40000.

Please make sure that this hits 3.11, otherwise it will not be useable
for video decoding.
