("rtlwifi: Remove the clear interrupt routine from all drivers").
Unfortunately, there were logic errors in that patch that prevented
affected boxes from booting even after that patch was applied.

The actual cause of the original problem is unknown as none of the
developers have systems that are affected.

I think the "realtek:" prefix is superfluous, "rtlwifi:" should be
enough. I'll also add a fixes line before I commit this:

Fixes: 54328e64047a ("rtlwifi: rtl8821ae: Fix system lockups on boot")

I'll drop the extra prefix in the future. Your extra line is good.
