[PATCH v2 0/4] staging: rtl8723bs: remove unused diagnostic

[Ethan Tidmore]

This series performs a driver-wide audit and cleanup of dead diagnostic 
code within the rtl8723bs staging driver.

The vendor-originated code included a variety of diagnostic counters 
housed within 'struct debug_priv'. These counters were updated 
throughout the driver's hot paths—including MLME, receive, power 
control, and SDIO allocation—but were never read, exposed via 
debugfs, or utilized for any internal logic.

This series removes the write-only counters, the skeletal functions 
used to update them, and cleans up the resulting unused pointers 
and logic blocks.

Changes in v2:
- Expanded the series to include the removal of RX FIFO overflow 
  logic in hal_com.c.

[PATCH v2 1/4] staging: rtl8723bs: remove dead RX info reset logic

[Ethan Tidmore]

The function rtw_reset_rx_info() and its associated counters in
struct debug_priv are used to track AMPDU and management frame
statistics that are never read by the driver.

Remove the unused function, the write-only struct members, and the
now-unused pdbgpriv/psdpriv pointers in rtw_free_assoc_resources()
to clean up the MLME code

[PATCH v2 2/4] staging: rtl8723bs: remove dead RX FIFO overflow logic

[Ethan Tidmore]

The function rtw_hal_check_rxfifo_full() populates debug variables in
struct debug_priv that are never read. These variables (dbg_rx_fifo_*)
are write-only and the function itself is a skeletal implementation.

Additionally, remove a redundant hw_init_completed check in the caller
rtl8723b_HalDmWatchDog(), as it is already covered by a guard clause.

Removing this dead code saves unnecessary I/O cycles and cleans up
the driver's internal debug structures.

[PATCH v2 3/4] staging: rtl8723bs: remove dead RX sequence logic

[Ethan Tidmore]

The function recv_indicatepkts_pkt_loss_cnt() is used to calculate
values for dbg_rx_ampdu_loss_count, but this variable is never
used anywhere in the driver.

Remove the function and its call site.

[PATCH v2 4/4] staging: rtl8723bs: remove unused struct debug_priv and all counters

[Ethan Tidmore]

The struct debug_priv is a collection of diagnostic counters that are
updated throughout the driver's hot paths (RX/TX, MLME, Power Control,
and SDIO) but are never read, exposed via debugfs, or used for logic.

This cleanup removes:
- The entire struct debug_priv definition and its instance in dvobj_priv.
- All write-only counter increments across the core, hal, and os_dep.
- Unused local pointers (psdpriv, pdbgpriv) that were only serving
  the dead diagnostic logic.
- Redundant logic blocks that only existed to update these counters.

Please slow down and give people, and tools, a chance to review previous
versions before sending new versions.

Take the time and review changes sent in by others as well while you

Please don't send multiple versions of a patch on the same day.

Anyway, kbuild bot complained so at least I don't have to review this
now.
