A recent LKML thread (http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1112.3/00965.html)
discusses the the WARNING listed below, which occurs after a suspend/resume cycle. For
rtl8192cu, the problem was fixed by delaying the firmware loading until the interface is
brought up. By this time, the userspace support is available.

John,

Please drop this patch. The "fix" only cures the symptom, not the underlying cause. I will rework and resubmit.

Thanks,

Larry
