Subject[3.7.0 regression] rt2x00lib_probe_dev: Error - Failed to initialize hw
I just updated an old 1st gen AMD64 laptop from kernel 3.6.0 to 3.7.0,
Fedora 15 user-space, and was greeted by the following kernel warning:

phy0 -> rt2x00lib_probe_dev: Error - Failed to initialize hw.
rt2500pci: probe of 0000:00:0c.0 failed with error -22

Rebooting into 3.6.0 shows no such error, booting 3.7.0 again shows the error,
so it's completely reproducible.

lspci -v for the device in question:

00:0c.0 Network controller: Ralink corp. RT2500 802.11g (rev 01)
Subsystem: Micro-Star International Co., Ltd. Unknown 802.11g mini-PCI Adapter
Flags: bus master, slow devsel, latency 64, IRQ 18
Memory at d0000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=8K]
Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 2
Kernel driver in use: rt2500pci
Kernel modules: rt2500pci

I've never actually used or configured this device (the laptop is always
on wired ethernet), but thought you should know about this possible driver
regression.
