Revert "mwifiex: fix system hang problem after resume"
This reverts commit 437322ea. This above-mentioned "fix" does not actually do anything to prevent a race condition. It simply papers over it so that the issue doesn't appear. If this is a real problem, it should be explained better than the above commit does, and an alternative, non-racy solution should be found. For further reason to revert this: there's no reason we can't try resetting the card when it's *actually* stuck in host-sleep mode. So instead, this is unnecessarily creating scenarios where we can't recover Wifi (and in fact, I'm fielding reports of Chromebooks that can't recover after the aforementioned commit). Note that this was proposed in 2017 and Ack'ed then, but due to my marking as RFC, it never went anywhere: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9657277/ [RFC] Revert "mwifiex: fix system hang problem after resume" Cc: Amitkumar Karwar <akarwar@marvell.com> Signed-off-by:Brian Norris <briannorris@chromium.org> Reviewed-by:
