While testing the RTL8822CS SDIO WiFi/BT adapter, I found that in some 
cases the kernel could not initialize it. However, manually resetting 
the adapter via gpio allows it to start correctly.
Apparently at system start the adapter is in an undefined state 
(including the unknown state of gpio after starting uboot). A forced 
reset helps to initialize the adapter in most cases. Experimentally it 
was found that 100ms is enough to reset.

Since I am new to wireless drivers feel free correct me.
