As reported by Exuvo is possible that we have lot's of EPROTO errors
during device start i.e. firmware load. But after that device works
correctly. Hence marking device gone by few EPROTO errors done by
commit e383c70474db ("rt2x00: check number of EPROTO errors") caused
regression - Exuvo device stop working after kernel update. To fix
disable the check during device start.

FWIW: In case you need to send an improved patch, could you
please add this before the 'Reported-by:' (see at (¹) below for the
reasoning):

And if the patch is already good to go: could the subsystem maintainer
please add it when applying?
Sure, I'll add it during commit.

What's the plan to getting this merged?
My plan is to commit this to wireless-drivers tree, the tree was just
closed due to the merge window.
