The switch case RATR_INX_WIRELESS_MC has a missing break, this seems
to be unintentional as the setting of variable ret gets overwritten
when the case falls through to the following RATR_INX_WIRELESS_AC_5N
case.  Fix this by adding in the missing break.

Is the fixes line correct? This patch is not for staging.

No, the correct fixes commit is 21e4b0726dc67 (" rtlwifi: rtl8821ae: Move driver from staging to regular tree").

This driver was initially placed in staging as it was needed for a special project, which is the commit that Colin used. As the patch subject states, the driver was later moved to the regular wireless tree.

That break is required, thus ACKed-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

thanks,

Larry
