I tried this code change but that did not help. I saw that the code
change is in a function called mwifiex_enable_hs(), which only gets
invoked by mwifiex_sdio_suspend(); which is why I think it is not having
any effect. Because when I run the command to scan the channel list
(i.e. iw dev wlan0 scan), the system is not in suspend state. And I
noticed (by adding prints in omap_hsmmc.c for suspend and resume
callbacks) that during the "scan" command, the suspend routine gets invoked
for HSMMC but it never gets resumed (may be due to the missed wakeup
IRQ) from mwifiex and the command times out.
Thanks for your help.
