Could you also check if the report format is compatible?
I mean definition of first 4 bytes are the same for all chips? and
definition of first 6 bytes are the same for RTL8814AU and current
exiting chips?

By the way, I think we should struct with w0, w1, ... fields instead.
    struct rtw_ra_report {
        __le32 w0;
        __le32 w1;
        __le32 w2;
        __le32 w3;
        __le32 w4;
        __le32 w5;
        __le32 w6;
    } __packed;

Then, we can be easier to avoid accessing out of range. GET_RA_REPORT_BW()
hides something, no help to read the code.
