Hi Carlo,

This smells like a firmware crash. Upon the brcmf_bus_start failure we
bail out on the probe. I suspect in the error path there is an issue
introduced (or exposed) by the mentioned patch. Did not look further
into it as the family is giving me the angry look during the holidays ;-)

Arend
