[PATCH] wilc1000: Fix spurious "FW not responding" error

From: David Mosberger-Tang
Date: Wed Dec 08 2021 - 01:28:11 EST


When deinitializing the driver, one or more "FW not responding" error
appears on the console. This appears to be due to wilc_wlan_stop()
disabling host/WILC1000 communication, but then right afterwards, it
tries to release the bus with chip-sleep enabled. The problem is
enabling the chip-sleep cannot success once host/WILC1000
communication is disabled. Fix by only releasing the bus.
