So, still the only thing that this patch does is to *disable* tx_with_siso_diversity flag. 
The configuration one line below it (looking at Linux 6.2-rc2) is essentially the same
(but with wildcards instead), the only thing different is using iwl_quz_a0_hr1_b0 instead
of iwl_cfg_quz_a0_hr_b0. These two configurations differ only in setting tx_with_siso_diversity.
Thus the question, what is the reason for the change? Did you experienced FW crashes,
throughput degardataion?
