  * owner:  cjb => shep


Comment:

 It's a failure to get a contiguous allocation for the mwifiex firmware.
 It's not unexpected for these high order allocations to fail after boot
 time, when memory is fragmented.

 The reason it's started happening now is that we're tearing down the wifi
 device across every s/r, including the kernel data structure containing
 the 8787 firmware.  Before shep's kernel change to do this, we'd keep the
 firmware in memory and not need to try to reallocate it later after
 fragmentation.

 Reassigning to shep, if that's okay.
