I forget to propose a RFC for writing (e.g. H2C commands to firmware), and
here they are:

	__le32 *h2c = skb->data;

#define RTW89_H2C_DISCONNECT_DETECT_W0_ENABLE BIT(0)
#define RTW89_H2C_DISCONNECT_DETECT_W0_TRYOK_BCNFAIL_COUNT_EN BIT(1)
#define RTW89_H2C_DISCONNECT_DETECT_W0_DISCONNECT BIT(2)
#define RTW89_H2C_DISCONNECT_DETECT_W0_MAC_ID GENMASK(15, 8)
#define RTW89_H2C_DISCONNECT_DETECT_W0_CHECK_PERIOD GENMASK(23, 16)
#define RTW89_H2C_DISCONNECT_DETECT_W0_TRY_PKT_COUNT GENMASK(31, 24)
#define RTW89_H2C_DISCONNECT_DETECT_W1_TRYOK_BCNFAIL_COUNT_LIMIT GENMASK(7, 0)

	h2c[0] = le32_encode_bits(enable, RTW89_H2C_DISCONNECT_DETECT_W0_ENABLE) |
		 le32_encode_bits(!enable, RTW89_H2C_DISCONNECT_DETECT_W0_DISCONNECT) |
		 le32_encode_bits(macid, RTW89_H2C_DISCONNECT_DETECT_W0_MAC_ID) |
		 le32_encode_bits(100, RTW89_H2C_DISCONNECT_DETECT_W0_CHECK_PERIOD);
	h2c[1] = le32_encode_bits(5, RTW89_H2C_DISCONNECT_DETECT_W1_TRYOK_BCNFAIL_COUNT_LIMIT);
