The patch below was submitted to be applied to the 5.4-stable tree.

I fail to see how this patch meets the stable kernel rules as found at Documentation/process/stable-kernel-rules.rst.

I could be totally wrong, and if so, please respond to <[email protected]> and let me know why this patch should be applied. Otherwise, it is now dropped from my patch queues, never to be seen again.

thanks,

greg k-h

Subject: [PATCH] Documentation: dt: wireless: update wl1251 for sdio

The standard method for sdio devices connected to an sdio interface is to define them as a child node like we can see with wlcore.
