That means, __start___cmd points to "info".  The next command has no
name (and appears to be a complete mess).  The clever section trick
doesn't seem to work properly.

Hmm. can you send the output of

nm iw | grep __cmd

objdump -h iw
(only the __cmd section part is fine)

and
objdump -j __cmd -s iw
