My review agent had the following finding which I did not try to validate:

sent_to_stack[] is incremented on partner_dp but reo_rx[] is on dp — this
splits correlated stats across two devices' debugfs files in MLO

In a 2-device MLO group, ath12k_wifi7_dp_rx_process_received_packets()
increments partner_dp->device_stats.sent_to_stack[ring_id] (the msdu's
originating device), while ath12k_wifi7_dp_rx_process() increments
dp->device_stats.reo_rx[ring_id][device_id] (the ring owner).

Reading /sys/kernel/debug/.../device0/device_dp_stats shows reo_rx[ring0]=N
but sent_to_stack[ring0]=0; device1's file shows the reverse. The two counters
meant to track the same traffic path cannot be compared from a single file.
