The generic disable_rf() function clears bits 22 and 23 in
REG_RX_WAIT_CCA, however we did not re-enable them again in
rtl8723b_enable_rf()

This resolves the problem for me with 8723bu devices not working again
after reloading the driver.

This is not the correct way to submit patches for inclusion in the
stable kernel tree.  Please read Documentation/stable_kernel_rules.txt
for how to do this properly.

DOH Kalle told me to CC stable I took it for granted that you meant CC
in the email sense. Guess I get to blame my self for looking like a
fool in public.

Yes, I meant adding it to the commit log. This part of the stable
process is a bit confusing, I should have been more clear how this
works.

I'll send you an email directly with the SHA once it hits Linus' tree
instead.

No need, I'll add this to the commit log and the stable team will get
the commit automatically once the commit is in Linus' tree:

Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 4.7+
