[PATCH v2 0/3] wifi: rt2x00: improve watchdog support

[Shiji Yang]

This series patches will introduce a new designed DMA busy watchdog
and fix two small issues when calling ieee80211_restart_hw().

Changes in v2:
* Disable DMA watchdog for USB NICs because they don't have relevant
  register.
* Extend 'watchdog' module parameter to support different watchdogs.
* Clear the 'intf->enable_beacon' flag instead of hacking the
  conditions of the 'else if' block. The logic still the same but
  should be easy to understand what happened there.
* Clear the beacon before restarting the beacon queue. It should be
  like this.
* Unconditional stop the beacon queue in rt2x00lib_disable_radio().
  It is no need to check the reset status because there is a flag in
  rt2x00 queue struct to record the queue start/stop status. It won't
  be stopped twice. The procedure still the same as patch v1.


P.S. It seems that this cover letter won't be included in the patch
series in https://lore.kernel.org/. It's an issue with the Outlook
email or I missed something?

Outlook e-mail is apparently rewriting your e-mail headers:

Your actual patches are being threaded since they all reference the same 
Message ID, but the cover letter no longer has that Message ID.

You might want to look at using b4 
(<https://b4.docs.kernel.org/en/latest/contributor/overview.html>) 
instead of git send-email.

 From the linked page:
The main benefit of b4 send is that you no longer have to really care if 
your mail server performs some kind of content mangling that causes 
patches to become corrupted, or if it doesn’t provide a way to send mail 
via SMTP.
