okay. curious is, that my variant works with sane results too.
i will test your variant and check the results

according to my findings

MT_RXV4_RCPI1 is part of rx descriptor 4 and not 3
so it must be rxdg4 = rxd[4] etc.
RXV start from 1 in the code.

That is: RXV1 <-> rxdg0, RXV2 <-> rxdg1 ...so RXV4 <-> rxdg3

however rxdg3 contains MT_RXV3_IB_RSSIRX which can be used for signal calculation.
i already wrote a similar code for this driver which i sended to felix a long time ago.
my variant looks like
                  status->signal = (FIELD_GET(MT_RXV3_IB_RSSIRX, rxdg3) - 220) / 2;
                  status->chain_signal[0] = (FIELD_GET(MT_RXV4_RCPI0, rxdg4) - 220) / 2;
                  status->chain_signal[1] = (FIELD_GET(MT_RXV4_RCPI1, rxdg4) - 220) / 2;
                  status->chain_signal[2] = (FIELD_GET(MT_RXV4_RCPI2, rxdg4) - 220) / 2;
                  status->chain_signal[3] = (FIELD_GET(MT_RXV4_RCPI3, rxdg4) - 220) / 2;
mt7615 actually doesn't use in-band RSSI for signal calculation, but it
occurs to me that i should modify the code to compare per-chain's
signal. Something like this:

		status->chain_signal[0] = to_rssi(MT_RXV4_RCPI0, rxdg3);
		status->chain_signal[1] = to_rssi(MT_RXV4_RCPI1, rxdg3);
		status->chain_signal[2] = to_rssi(MT_RXV4_RCPI2, rxdg3);
		status->chain_signal[3] = to_rssi(MT_RXV4_RCPI3, rxdg3);
		status->signal = status->chain_signal[0];

		switch (status->chains) {
		case 0xf:
			status->signal = max(status->signal,
					     status->chain_signal[3]);
		case 0x7:
			status->signal = max(status->signal,
					     status->chain_signal[2]);
		case 0x3:
			status->signal = max(status->signal,
					     status->chain_signal[1]);
			break;
		default:
			break;
		}


I could send a v2 or you can take care of that.
