It is not so much an issue of recent firmware. Actually, on recent
firmware 7.x.y.z and higher there are other command to create *and*
delete additional interfaces. On the other hand we aim to support a
large number of devices going back to bcm4329 so we have to come up with
a scheme to use the new commands or fallback to old api. Let's hope we
can reuse much of this effort you put in.

Looks like debugging code. If you want to keep it, make it
brcmf_dbg(INFO, ...).

Seems like an unrelated change.

both have size BRCMF_MAX_IFS so might stick with one loop as it is
unlikely the size of these two arrays will ever differ.

Why not do this in brcmf_remove_interface(). Seems more clean to me.
