rtwn: fix RTL8192EU power-down / power-up hanging
The RTL8192EU NIC (on older USB 2/USB 3 ports, not on newer USB 3 ports, that still needs to be fixed!) will attach, scan, associate fine. However, restarting wpa_supplicant results in the NIC hanging until you disconnect it. It turns out early in the power_on sequence - BUT only after a power_off - the NIC would suddenly stop responding to any USB transfers. It doesn't require the MCU to be available for USB transfers - the hardware itself does that - so something had to be going very sideways. I traced it down to these steps during the power_off sequence. They don't exist in the Linux rtl8xxxu driver, and there are commits earlier in their RTL8192EU bring-up that suggest the author was facing similar power sequencing / re-sequencing issues. This likely won't fix the actual channel programming / power sequencing / deafness issues on later USB-3 ports. There are other commits / fixes in the rtl8xxxu driver related to RTL8192EU bring-up that we don't have. Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D48428 Obtained from: Linux rtl8xxxu driver
