Hello,

I read this point in  staging/wfx/TODO file 

- In wfx_cmd_send(), "async" allow to send command without waiting the reply.
    It may help in some situation, but it is not yet used. In add, it may cause
    some trouble:
      https://lore.kernel.org/driverdev-devel/alpine.DEB.2.21.1910041317381.2992@hadrien/
    So, fix it (by replacing the mutex with a semaphore) or drop it.

I think that this issue has already been fixed in hif_shutdown() function, hasn't it ?
I have another question. How can (replacing the mutex with a semaphore) solve the problem?

Thank You.
