So I just decided to send some patches myself, for both of my notes: [PATCH 5.2 1/2] mwifiex: Don't abort on small, spec-compliant vendor IEs https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10996895/ [PATCH 2/2] mwifiex: use 'total_ie_len' in mwifiex_update_bss_desc_with_ie() https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10996893/ I'd appreciate your review.
