For reference here's the old discussion: https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-wireless/patch/20220720160302.231516-1-ajay.kathat@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/ Any volunteers to help fix this?

Maybe we should come up with a todo list somewhere and advocate the "cleaners" to work on those items instead? -- https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-wireless/list/ https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/developers/documentation/submittingpatches
