Re: [PATCH] mwifiex: Add quirk to disable deep sleep with certain hardware revision

[Jonas Dreßler]

Also, just in case anyone at NXP is still following this thread, for the
sake of completeness here's a list of all the firmware bugs we've discovered
when investigating this wifi card:

- Firmware can crash after setting TX ring write pointer while ASPM L1 or
L1 substate is active (exact substate is platform dependent). Workaround
"mwifiex: Read a PCI register after writing the TX ring write pointer"

- Firmware sometimes doesn't wake up and send an interrupt after
reading/writing a PCI register. Workaround "mwifiex: Try waking the firmware
until we get an interrupt"

- Firmware doesn't properly implement PCIe LTR (appears to send a single
report during fw startup), making the system unable to enter deeper
powersaving states. Workaround "mwifiex: Add quirk resetting the PCI bridge
on MS Surface devices"

- On hardware revision 20 the card randomly wakes up from deep sleep, most
likely a hardware bug, the firmware should work around that. Workaround
"mwifiex: Add quirk to disable deep sleep with certain hardware revision"

- BTCOEX events from firmware are not sent consistently when BT gets
active/inactive and we end up throttling wifi speeds for no reason.
Workaround "Ignore BTCOEX events from the firmware"

- Firmwares BT LE active and passive scan feature is ignoring the "Filter
duplicates" property, leading to tons of USB interrupts from the card,
preventing the system from powersaving. No workaround except not pairing
any LE devices or disabling BT LE.
