[Bug 648428] [NEW] rt73usb: an error in dmesg appears when module load but there is no error

[Id2ndR]

Public bug reported:

I've got an usb wifi dongle using rt73 chip.
During the boot (plymouth with theme text) I can see the two lines containing "Error" of the following part of my dmesg. These lines shouldn't appears because my hardware is working fine.

[    6.126066] phy0 -> rt2500usb_init_eeprom: Error - Invalid RT chipset detected.
[    6.126099] phy0 -> rt2x00lib_probe_dev: Error - Failed to allocate device.
[    6.126158] usbcore: registered new interface driver rt2500usb
[    6.427337] phy1: Selected rate control algorithm 'minstrel'
[    6.427840] Registered led device: rt73usb-phy1::radio
[    6.427855] Registered led device: rt73usb-phy1::assoc
[    6.427871] Registered led device: rt73usb-phy1::quality
[    6.428358] usbcore: registered new interface driver rt73usb

My wireless dongle is working normally since a long time but I think
this is a bug in the detection of the chip that is used.
