There are special kinds of FW such as WMI only which are used for testing, diagnostics and other specific scenario. Such FW is loaded during driver probe and the driver disallows enabling any network interface, to avoid operational issues. In many cases it is used to debug early versions of FW with new features, which sometimes fail on startup. Currently when such FW fails to load (for example, because of init failure), the driver probe would fail and shutdown the device making it difficult to debug the early failure. To fix this, ignore load failures in WMI only FW and allow driver probe to succeed, making it possible to continue and debug the FW load failure.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
