Hi,
I'm integrating a WL1273 based module (Jorjin's WG7350) in a S3C2416 based
platform running kernel 3.9.8.
I've managed to configure my kernel platform data and set the wl127x calibration
file and I'm now able to set the wlan0 interface up, what is shown in the
following log;

The problem that I have is if I try to restart the wlan0 interface the wl127x
firmware seems not to reinitialize, as you can see here;

Even If I reboot my kernel and reload the modules the error persist! Only if I

Any hints on what could be wrong?
