Hi Barry,

Does removing the h2c command on the 8723bu and 8192eu make the
reconnect process work properly?

Do you have any documentation justifying why this isn't needed on gen1
parts? I am rather cautious of just removing them, but we may remove the
call for gen2, at least until we understand better how that firmware
command really works.

Cheers,
Jes
