[PATCH v3] wifi: mwifiex: add extra delay for firmware ready

From: David Lin
Date: Fri Dec 08 2023 - 18:41:21 EST


For SDIO IW416, due to a bug, FW may return ready before complete
full initialization.
Command timeout may occur at driver load after reboot.
Workaround by adding 100ms delay at checking FW status.

v3:
- v2 was a not finished patch that was send to the LKML by mistake
- changed check condition for extra delay with clear comments.
- added flag to struct mwifiex_sdio_device / mwifiex_sdio_sd8978 to
enable extra delay only for IW416.
