 This message is preceded by
 
    /* wait for the busy bit to clear */
    for (i = 500; i > 0; i--) {	/* 5s */
 	if ((CSR_READ_2(sc, WI_COMMAND) & WI_CMD_BUSY) == 0)
 		break;
 	if (sc->sc_invalid)
 		return ENXIO;
 	DELAY(1000);	/* 1 m sec */
    }
 
 So that "5s" is a lie - it's really 0.5s. In case it's really supposed
 to be 5 seconds, try changing the 500 to 5000... can't really hurt...
 though it probably won't help either...
