As reported by Exuvo is possible that we have lot's of EPROTO errors during device start i.e. firmware load. But after that device works correctly. Hence marking device gone by few EPROTO errors done by commit e383c70474db ("rt2x00: check number of EPROTO errors") caused regression - Exuvo device stop working after kernel update. To fix disable the check during device start. Reported-and-tested-by: Exuvo <redacted>FWIW: In case you need to send an improved patch, could you please add this before the 'Reported-by:' (see at (¹) below for the reasoning): Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-wireless/bff7d309-a816-6a75-51b6-5928ef4f7a8c@exuvo.se/ (local) And if the patch is already good to go: could the subsystem maintainer please add it when applying?
Sure, I'll add it during commit.
