b43legacy: Load firmware from work queue instead of from probe routine
Recent changes in udev are causing problems for drivers that load firmware from the probe routine. As b43legacy has such a structure, it must be changed. As this driver loads 3 or 4 firmware files, changing to the asynchronous routine request_firmware_nowait() would be complicated. In this implementation, the probe routine starts a work queue that calls the firmware loading routines. Signed-off-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> Signed-off-by: John W.
