Hi,

As my cubietruck went down because of a kernel bug in stretch i tought
it was maybe better to upgrade to buster since that's around the corner.
However now wifi stopped working:

[   16.871534] brcmfmac: brcmf_sdio_bus_rxctl: resumed on timeout
[   16.877576] brcmfmac: brcmf_bus_started: failed: -110
[   16.928040] brcmfmac: brcmf_attach: dongle is not responding:
err=-110
[   16.972120] brcmfmac: brcmf_sdio_firmware_callback: brcmf_attach
failed

A powercycle doesn't help in my case. Reports of similar issues mention
a firmware problem. This is what's currently installed on it:

ii  firmware-brcm80211              20190114-1                   all
Binary firmware for Broadcom/Cypress 802.11 wireless cards

ii  linux-image-4.19.0-2-armmp-lpae 4.19.16-1                    armhf
Linux 4.19 for ARMv7 multiplatform compatible SoCs supporting LPAE

Kind regards,
Axel
