It seems that the then and else branches of the conditions on lines 920
and 932 are the same.

Julia,

I think line 923 should be using RTL_RC_VHT_RATE_2SS_MCS8 rather than 
RTL_RC_VHT_RATE_2SS_MCS9, but I have sent an inquiry to my contact at Realtek to 
check.

Thanks,

Larry

OK, thanks.  The realtek code has a surprisingly large number of these
kinds of problems, for example, the following from
(drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtlwifi/btcoexist/halbtc8723b2ant.c):

		if ((wifi_rssi_state == BTC_RSSI_STATE_HIGH) ||
		    (wifi_rssi_state == BTC_RSSI_STATE_STAY_HIGH)) {
			btc8723b2ant_sw_mechanism(btcoexist, true, false,
						  false, false);
		} else {
			btc8723b2ant_sw_mechanism(btcoexist, true, false,
						  false, false);
		}

I wondered if the code is generated, and the generator has a policy of
just doing the last "then" branch if all of the known tests fail.

I could send a complete list of such issues, if they are of interest.
