Thanks, this looks good now. > Note, while board files lookup uses the same function and thus it is > possible to provide board-specific board-2.bin files, this is not > required in 99% of cases as board-2.bin already contains a way to > provide board-specific data with finer granularity than DT overrides. After thinking more about this I agree, we want to have just one board-2.bin file for WCN3990 as it makes easier to share board files across all variants. -- https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-wireless/list/ https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/developers/documentation/submittingpatches
