From: Tony Lindgren <tony@xxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 11ef6bc846dcdce838f0b00c5f6a562c57e5d43b ] At least on wl12xx, reading the MAC after boot can fail with a warning at drivers/net/wireless/ti/wlcore/sdio.c:78 wl12xx_sdio_raw_read. The failed call comes from wl12xx_get_mac() that wlcore_nvs_cb() calls after request_firmware_work_func(). After the error, no wireless interface is created. Reloading the wl12xx module makes the interface work. Turns out the wlan controller can be in a low-power ELP state after the boot from the bootloader or kexec, and needs to be woken up first. Let's wake the hardware and add a sleep after that similar to wl12xx_pre_boot() is already doing. Note that a similar issue could exist for wl18xx, but I have not seen it so far. And a search for wl18xx_get_mac and wl12xx_sdio_raw_read did not produce similar errors.
