Hi Kalle,

I did see the patch and noticed the procedural issues as well. However,
last week was a short week over here and I did not get to it to respond.
The fix is not done properly. The function determines the RSSI from the
per-chain values. I suspect that Jaap Jan is using a device which does
not report per-chain values so his solution should be used as fallback.
So can you revert the patch so Jaap Jan can rework the patch, ie.:

        if (count_rssi) {
                :
        } else if (test_bit(BRCMF_VIF_STATUS_CONNECTED,
                            &ifp->vif->sme_state)) {
                memset(&scb_val, 0, sizeof(scb_val));
                err = brcmf_fil_cmd_data_get(ifp, BRCMF_C_GET_RSSI,
                                             &scb_val, sizeof(scb_val));
                if (err) {
                        brcmf_err("Could not get rssi (%d)\n", err);
                        goto done;
                } else {
                        rssi = le32_to_cpu(scb_val.val);
                        sinfo->filled |= BIT(NL80211_STA_INFO_SIGNAL);
                        sinfo->signal = rssi;
                        brcmf_dbg(CONN, "RSSI %d dBm\n", rssi);
                }
        }

Let me know if that is ok or should I submit a fixup patch.

Regards,
Arend
