Subject: [PATCH] net: b44.c fix sleeping-with-spinlock-helt during resume
CC: Michael Buesch <mb@xxxxxxxxx>

The b44.c driver calls b44_chip_reset() from the resume path,
with the device spinlock held.
Unfortunately, b44_chip_reset() calls ssb_pcicore_dev_irqvecs_enable()
which is a sleeping function (and calls might_sleep), if and only if
the device hasn't been enabled yet.

Not having this hardware, the safest solution seems to be to enable
the irqvec before taking the spinlock...
