    "ath6kl: Defer wiphy and netdev registration till the end of ath6kl_core_init()"
    causes kernel panic by accessing the unallocated debug resources during
    boot time. To fix this, split the debug initialization funtion into two,
    one initializes the debug resource and the other takes care of debugfs
    initialization. When this issue shows up the kernel crash dump would
    look like
