I think I blocked most of this stuff out of my mind and it's also been
over 2 years. ;-) ...but any chance that Bluetooth could somehow be
involved, too? I seem to remember that things got complicated because
we could have both functions going at once. I think I advocated for
keeping it simple and always doing a full unplug / replug of the card
to reset it, but from notes I guess upstream landed it so you need to
handle the two cases (just WiFi vs WiFi+BT) in totally different ways.

It looks like there's ongoing discussion going on in
https://issuetracker.google.com/172214846. Maybe something there would
be helpful?
