Second revision of this patch, the first one is here:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-wireless/[email protected]/T/
Changes between v1 and v2:
- Add patch to move fixed version string length (128) into a define
- Added handling for errors in mwifiex_send_cmd()
- Switched to test_and_set_bit() to avoid reentry in maybe_quirk_fw_disable_ds()
- Improve commit message a bit
Jonas Dreßler (2):
mwifiex: Use a define for firmware version string length
mwifiex: Add quirk to disable deep sleep with certain hardware

2.33.1
Since the version string we get from the firmware is always 128
characters long, use a define for this size instead of having the number
128 copied all over the place.

2.33.1
The 88W8897 PCIe+USB card in the hardware revision 20 apparently has a
hardware issue where the card wakes up from deep sleep randomly and very
often, somewhat depending on the card activity, maybe the hardware has a
floating wakeup pin or something. This was found by comparing two MS
Surface Book 2 devices, where one devices wifi card experienced spurious
wakeups, while the other one didn't.
Those continuous wakeups prevent the card from entering host sleep when
the computer suspends. And because the host won't answer to events from
the card anymore while it's suspended, the firmwares internal power
saving state machine seems to get confused and the card can't sleep
anymore at all after that.
Since we can't work around that hardware bug in the firmware, let's
get the hardware revision string from the firmware and match it with
known bad revisions. Then disable auto deep sleep for those revisions,
which makes sure we no longer get those spurious wakeups.

Just answered to the previous one :-) Okay, you may ignore that thread
since you did what you and I were talking about.

While at it, drop the redundant sizeof().
