[PATCH 0/2] media: rtl28xxu: fix regression in linux-next

From: Johan Hovold
Date: Wed Jun 23 2021 - 04:46:27 EST


A patch addressing a new USB core warning in rtl28xxu ended up causing a
regression. As this was caught before the patch was committed it was
superseded by a v2. Unfortunately, the first erroneous version ended up
being applied to the media tree anyway.

This reverts the first version of the patch and resends the second
version.

Mauro and Hans, I've reported this issue to you both repeatedly over the
course of three weeks but you never replied to any of mails. I'm not
sure what went wrong, but I would assume that regressions would be
handled with a bit more urgency. Are you not receiving my mails or was
this perhaps a case of it not being clear who of you should act on the
reports?

proceed to fix the regression otherwise
