People are getting spooked by brcmfmac errors on their boot console. There's no reason for these messages to be errors.

Why are these here at all? Please just remove these entirely, you can get this information normally with ftrace.
Or, just delete these functions, why have empty ones at all?
This is a new WIP code path that Arend introduced which currently deliberately does nothing (but is intended to hold firmware vendor specific init in the future). So we can just drop the messages, but I don't think we want to remove the code entirely.
Why have empty functions that do nothing? If you want to put vendor-specific anything in here, add it when that is needed. We don't like having dead code laying around in the kernel if at all possible.
That's a question for Arend. But I think we should not be blocking this fix on that. I'll send a v2 that just removes the messages.
