That still doesn't prevent you from doing two things:

* make that fw_init_count a proper kref instead of your homegrown thing

* do not preemptively execute commands on the PSP if you can't possibly
know what the next command is going to be - instead, just put it in the
required state only when you really have to. I.e., don't do all that
unnecessary INIT -> CMD -> SHUTDOWN game for no reason.

Thx.
