That was a workaround for OpenWrt generation of config files. This patch
was used to postpone returning from probe function until loading
firmware and calling register_wiphy().
All of that is not needed anymore thanks to the ieee80211 hotplug.d
script introduced in the commit 5f8f8a3661 ("base-files, mac80211,
broadcom-wl: wifi detection and configuration"). That takes care of
generating /etc/config/wireless entries even if wireless device appears
late in the booting process.
