> rtw8821c_rfe_defs[34] (0x22) was added as part of adding USB support,
> likely because rfe_option reads as 0x22. As this now becomes 0x2,
> rtw8821c_rfe_defs[34] is no longer used and can be removed.

> However, the driver has several places where rfe_option is tested
> with the pattern if (rfe_option == 2 || rfe_option == 0x22) or
> if (rfe_option == 4 || rfe_option == 0x24), so that rfe_option BIT(5)
> has no influence on the code path taken. We therefore mask BIT(5)
> out from rfe_option entirely until this assumption is proved wrong
