Is there no event that you can use to determine when user-space is

IFF_UP, but I did not find anyone saying what the equivalent mac80211
callback should be.

Also this issue can occur when the firmware is only available on the
real root, but the ramdisk contains the b43 module.

The callback from request_firmware_nowait() seems to be about as good an indicator as any.

Yes, having the b43 module in the ramdisk would also cause a problem.
