 When you have lost WLAN connectivity, AND USB connectivity, then you have
 this bug, #4476.

 connectivity you also lose WLAN connectivity (host to wireless).

 Javier,
 I think that the point is that there are cases when you cannot scan
 wireless but the usb bus seem to be working (#4470) and there are cases
 where you have a usb problem (for instance cannot use a usb stick) on top
 of #4470, and that is the present (#4476) trac

 Yes, what we see here is that the radio is still working (forwarding
 frames) but you cannot access it from the host. That's why we believe that
 the firmware is not crashing.
