In many functions there is need to read user section content and check firmware version or write section content to some manifest or dictionary. Previously to do it, in each function was loop to search for proper section in proper module, then allocate buffer, read content and check for possible error between each step what is quite overwhelming. After change there will be one function responsible for this task. Signed-off-by: Karol Trzcinski <karolx.trzcinski@linux.intel.com>
