Some devices have an optimization in place to enable the firmware to be retaineed during a system reboot, so after reboot the device can skip requesting and loading the firmware. This can save up to 1s in load time. The mt7601u 802.11 device happens to be such a device. When these devices retain the firmware on a reboot and then suspend they can miss looking for the firmware on resume. To help with this we need a way to cache the firmware when such an optimization has taken place. Signed-off-by: Luis R.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
