BTW: What makes you think this issue is exclusive to the IW416?

We have also seen this in the past both on our Verdin iMX8M Mini (SDIO/SDIO) and Verdin iMX8M Plus (SDIO/UART)
with 88W8997.

good case:

[    6.496541] mwifiex_sdio mmc0:0001:1: info: FW download over, size 594556 bytes
...
[    7.272436] mwifiex_sdio mmc0:0001:1: WLAN FW is active
[    7.314958] mwifiex_sdio mmc0:0001:1: Unknown api_id: 5
[    7.347647] mwifiex_sdio mmc0:0001:1: info: MWIFIEX VERSION: mwifiex 1.0 (16.92.21.p55) 
[    7.355977] mwifiex_sdio mmc0:0001:1: driver_version = mwifiex 1.0 (16.92.21.p55) 

bad case:

[    8.720216] mwifiex_sdio mmc0:0001:1: info: FW download over, size 594556 bytes
...
[   24.976699] mwifiex_sdio mmc0:0001:1: FW failed to be active in time
[   24.983098] mwifiex_sdio mmc0:0001:1: info: _mwifiex_fw_dpc: unregister device
