Why did you split your changes into four patches ? As I understand it,
the current bananapro_defconfig already supports WiFi, so if the bump
to Linux 5.1.1 breaks WiFi and requires the fixes of the three other
patches, then you should have a single patch that does all.
Without this, you break bisectability: if I apply only your PATCH 1/4,
then the WiFi feature which was working is no longer working.
Of course, if WiFi was in fact not working with the current defconfig
(i.e before any of your patches), then it's fine to split the patches.
Just perhaps patches 2, 3 and 4 could be the same, because it's all
about making WiFi work.
Could you clarify this point, and send a new iteration ?
Thanks,
Thomas
