I think a reference to the commit which is fixed should be added.

This was for ath11k. See my patch for it in 
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20211207142913.1734635-1-sven@narfation.org
So I doubt that it is ok to add the same backtrace for an ath12k commit.

And if I compare both patches, it looks to me that you don't handle the 
params->extraie.len > 16 bit (see WMI_TLV_LEN) in ath12k.

Kind regards,
	Sven
