Gotcha - how do you do your testing to reproduce the problem btw? Most
of my testing is using the 8723au as a primary device and the next
device as a follow-on, so I may not see as long a run with the device

How do you mean? Right now I have a struct usb_device pointer and
dereference that for ->dev to use with dev_info() messages etc. Do you
want to see more than that?
