[PATCH v2 2/3] libertas_tf: don't defer firmware loading until start()
From: Lubomir Rintel
Date: Wed Feb 20 2019 - 05:59:07 EST
In order to be able to get a MAC address before we register the device
with ieee80211 we'll need to load the firmware way earlier.
There seems to be one problem with this: the device seems to start
with radio enabled and starts sending in frames right after the firmware
load finishes. Disable the radio as soon as possible.

Changes since v1:
- Fix build
- Reword the commit message not to call the firmware behavior a bug
- Move the radioon = RADIO_OFF initialization a bit earlier
