I followed up on that almost a year ago here[1] but the thread went cold after that. Numerous people - myself included - have cited sources clearly indicating that 0x0 = US, NOT unset. See the same post[1] for more info. I still think this patch should be reverted unless somebody can provide a source to the contrary, re: the meaning of 0x0. It's unfortunate that this is still affecting users, particularly when the original author of the patch even asked for it to be reverted.[2] Alvin [1] https://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/ath10k/2021-January/012374.html [2] https://lore.kernel.org/ath10k/9cc7efbb3c9b29e4553a427e6f58725f@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
