Did you try "wlanctl-ng wlan0 lnxreq_ifstate ifstate=enable"? This got a
DWL-122 that was otherwise causing trouble for me working. I'm pasting
the notes i was making before I discovered this solution for comparison
below.

dmesg when i boot the computer with the adapter plugged in

dmesg when i remove and reinsert the adapter

Trying to bring the device up results in "SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such device"
unless the device was plugged in while under load. Then it works, but if
I take it down and try to bring it up again without touching the card
the error reappears. iwconfig always returns "no wireless extensions".
