Hi,

After days debugging, enabled CONFIG_MMC_DEBUG=y, I suspect the
mwifiex reset issue could still  be a mwifiex bug.

I use firmware sd8801_uapsta.bin, it is able to connect to the WiFi
network, but  reset either from WiFi modem or following command killed
WiFi, disabled mwifiex and wiped off /sys/kernel/debug/mwifiex/mlan0:

# echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/mwifiex/mlan0/reset

The /sys/kernel/debug/mwifiex/mlan0 was deleted:

# ls /sys/kernel/debug/mwifiex/

Looked at Douglas Anderson post "Fix Marvell WiFi reset by adding SDIO
API to replug card"
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-mmc/cover/20190716164209.62320-1-dianders@chromium.org/,
I believe mwifiex should be able to replug card after reset, is it
still buggy or is it the firmware sd8801_uapsta.bin problem?

Thank you.

Kind regards,
