Subject: [PATCH 5.11 regression fix 0/1] staging: rtl8723bs: Move wiphy setup to after reading the regulatory settings from the chip

Greg, Johan,

Unfortunately the deadlock fix for the rtl8723bs staging driver,
which Johan wrote and landed for 5.11-rc6, is not enough to avoid
the rtl8723bs driver from regressing in 5.11 .

Since the original fix has my Tested-by: I double checked and it
does fix things on some devices with a rtl8723bs wifi chip but not
on others. See the commit-msg of my follow-up fix details.

I've written a small follow-up fix, it would be nice if one of
you can get this to Linus for 5.11. But I understand this is cutting
it pretty close to the release, so if it misses 5.11 then this can
be picked up by the linux-stable releases.

Regards,

Hans
