The driver attempts to read the firmware file before userspace is ready, leading to the following warning: WARNING: at drivers/base/firmware_class.c:537 _request_firmware+0x3f6/0x420() For rtl8192cu, the problem is fixed by storing the firmware in a global buffer rather than one allocated per device. The usage count is increased when suspending and decreased when resuming. This way, the firmware is retained through a suspend/resume cycle, and does not have to be reread. This patch should fix the bug reported in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=771002. Note: This patch also touches rtl8192ce as the "firmware" loaded message is now printed in the wrong place. Reported-by: Mohammed Arafa Reported-by: Dave Jones Signed-off-by: Larry Finger Cc: Linus Torvalds Cc: Stable --- John/Linus, This patch should be pushed in V3.2 (if possible). There will be similar patches for rtl8192{ce,se,de}, but as they do not trigger a warning, I'll save them for later.
