I think it is the issue addressed by this 4.12 patch: https://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=150366111408179&w=2 Patch for 4.13+ kernels is here: https://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=150367345912061&w=2
A potential problem with this solution is that commit 41977e86c984 ("rt2x00: add
support for MT7620") has been in the kernel since 4.12.0, but the openSUSE
problem was reported not to occur until 4.12.8. I have asked that this patch be
applied to the openSUSE source and a special test kernel be generated for our
OP. I will let you know what develops. I do not have the necessary hardware to
do the test in house.
Should the patch to wireless-drivers be annotated with a Stable reference so
that it is added to 4.12 and 4.13?
Thanks,
Larry
