Hello Heiner,

apologies for the late reply - I've been busy with offline things.

You are right:
- For this case my logic analyzer is also too slow
- In the meantime I've been able to reproduce the memory corruption
issue without your patch

Indeed, and in addition to SM1 I have also tested it on Khadas VIM2 (GXM SoC):
[    4.135944] brcmfmac: brcmf_c_preinit_dcmds: Firmware: BCM4356/2
wl0: Apr  9 2021 00:40:07 version 7.35.349.104 (775a9ab CY) FWID

Best regards,
Martin
