But I'd like to know why rtw88/rtw89 aren't included in this patchset? Greg sent a patch [1] to correct error path of USB probe for rtw88. In the discussion, he also mentioned the simplest way is to drop usb_get_dev()/usb_put_dev() like this patchset does. Will you share patches for rtw88/rtw89? I so, I'd drop Greg's patch and apply yours. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-wireless/2026022333-periscope-unusual-f0a= 0@gregkh/ Ping-Ke
