For me the patch will work but there is a change for RT3290 and RT5390.
On both chipsets BBP 1 was not written before but with this patch it is
going to be written now and the value depends on the return of
rt2800_get_txpower_bw_comp(). It should be checked that the function
does the correct things for these chips.

Any comments on this patch? Ron, does it work for you?

Commit cee2c7315f60beeff6137ee59e99acc77d636eeb (rt2800: fix RT5390 &
RT3290 TX power settings regression) needs to be extended for the RT5592
chipset as well. But at least for the RT5592 the existing regression fix is
not right because the value returned from rt2800_get_gain_calibration_delta()
is bogus as it is generated by an unappropriate algorithm. This can cause
severe connection issues with sticks that have external ALC enabled like the
Netis WF2150 because of too low TX power at least during the scan process.
So the fix for now is not to call rt2800_get_gain_calibration_delta()
for the RT5592 chipset. I do not touch the existing regression fix for
RT5390 & RT3290 but I think they may need a rework as well.
Thanks for the patch, but I prefer to call rt2800_get_gain_calibration_delta()
on chips that we know it is needed for them, something like in attached
patch
Mike, since you are cee2c7315f reporter, could you test the attached patch
does not break driver functioning on your H/W.
Thanks
