These errors are not new and I assume they have always been there. I'm
not an expert here, so I want to know is the problem here that the SDIO
interface is shutdown before brcmfmac is suspended or lies the issue
within brcmfmac suspend itself?
Upon suspend we execute the remove path and cleaning the interfaces.
We notify cfg80211 about the removal, which in turn will notify
userspace, but is tries to obtain the tx power from brcmfmac.
I guess "it tries to obtain" is some sort of event path that wants to
include the TX power in an event. That doesn't seem to make all that
much sense on removal events though, so perhaps we could remove the
get_channel and get_tx_power calls for NL80211_CMD_DEL_INTERFACE.
Not sure if I get it right, but the follow patch make the errors go away:

But this change doesn't consider get_txq_stats and the further calls
rdev_get_channel for the valid_links.
Do we actually need nl80211_send_iface() for NL80211_CMD_DEL_INTERFACE?
