That was not "minor" changes, as your diff looks like:

But the original was:
 drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtw89/core.c   |    2 ++
 drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtw89/core.h   |    6 ++++++
 drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtw89/pci.c    |    2 ++
 drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtw89/pci.h    |   12 ++++++++++++
 drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtw89/pci_be.c |   18 ++++++++++++++++++
 drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtw89/reg.h    |    9 +++++++++
 6 files changed, 49 insertions(+)

That is a big difference.

Please either backport the whole thing, or document exactly what you
changed here.  Otherwise this looks like a totally new patch and we
can't take that for obvious reasons.

thanks,
