Johannes Berg b08dfd0435 iwlwifi: load firmware asynchronously before mac80211 registration ... At the wireless summit in Portland we discussed a way of loading firmware asynchronously from ->probe() before registration to mac80211, in order to register with the wireless subsystems with complete information in cases where firmware is required to know parameters. This is not yet the case in iwlwifi, but for some new features we're working on it will be the case since those will only be supported by new firmware images. Hence, to start with, convert iwlwifi to load firmware asynchronously from probe, unbinding the device when firmware loading fails, and only registering with the wireless subsystems after firmware has been loaded successfully. Future patches will hook into this to register the new firmware capabilities, depending on the firmware API version.
