I am running the latest linux-next wireless stack, backported on 4.4,
including the latest mwifiex patches that have been posted on this
mailing list. (thanks!)
Latest patch I applied is "mwifiex: pcie: add card_reset() support"
from Brian Norris.
I am running this kernel on a Microsoft Surface Pro 4.
After suspending (to disk) and resuming, the relevant dmesg output is:

I am willing to do some experiments, by modifying the driver myself,
but need some pointers on where to look, or what to try. Would
downloading the firmware to the controller again help?
Any help is welcome! Thanks.
