Source: linux
Version: 4.17.17-1
Severity: normal

On a cubietruck board, the linux-image-4.17.0-3-armmp-lpae kernel kernel
fails to enable the builtin wifi:

Sep 09 17:52:52 honeybee kernel: brcmfmac: brcmf_fw_alloc_request: using brcm/brcmfmac43362-sdio for chip BCM43362/1
Sep 09 17:52:52 honeybee kernel: usbcore: registered new interface driver brcmfmac

Sep 09 17:52:55 honeybee kernel: brcmfmac: brcmf_sdio_bus_rxctl: resumed on timeout
Sep 09 17:52:55 honeybee kernel: brcmfmac: brcmf_bus_started: failed: -110
Sep 09 17:52:55 honeybee kernel: brcmfmac: brcmf_attach: dongle is not responding: err=-110
Sep 09 17:52:55 honeybee kernel: brcmfmac: brcmf_sdio_firmware_callback: brcmf_attach failed

This was working using linux-image-4.14.0-3-armmp-lpae and earlier kernels
including stable's, so seems to be a reversion.

I have firmware-brcm80211 installed. I tried downgrading it to the same
version I was using with the older kernel (20170823-1), but that did not help,
so I don't think it's a problem with the firmware.

Here it is working with the older kernel, for comparison:
