You should describe in the commit log what LiFi means, not everyone know the term and might mistake this as a regular Wi-Fi device (which it's not). > + hw->wiphy->bands[NL80211_BAND_2GHZ] = &mac->band; Johannes comment about piggy-backing NL80211_BAND_2GHZ is not yet addressed: https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-wireless/patch/20210212115030.124490-1-srini.raju@xxxxxxxxxxxx/ I agree with Johannes, a Li-Fi driver should not claim to be a regular 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi device. -- https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-wireless/list/ https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/developers/documentation/submittingpatches
