This patch addresses two recent mail threads. The first, which was on LKML (http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1112.3/00965.html) was for a WARNING that occurs after a suspend/resume cycle for rtl8192cu. The scond mail thread (http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=132655490826766&w=2) concerned changes in udev that break drivers that delay while firmware is loaded on modprobe. This patch converts all rtlwifi-based drivers to use the asynchronous firmware loading mechanism. A completion queue entry is inititialized and the firmware load is started with the device initialization. The firmware-loaded callback routine issues a complete() call. The routine that uploads firmware to the device calls wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout() with a 5 sec timeout. The current patch is working, but as this is my first usage of the completion mechanism, I would like an expert to look it over. In particular, is it sufficient and prudent to issue a complete() call when the driver is unloaded so as to not leave a queue entry when the underlying struct is destroyed? For the purists, yes, I know this is not a proper commit message. I will supply one when the patch is actually submitted.
