Bug#1125797: linux: trixie stable update regresses for rtw88 driver
Source: linux
Version: 6.12.63-1
Severity: important
Tags: upstream
The recently released trixie stable update contains change:
wifi: rtw88: sdio: use indirect IO for device registers before power-on
(linux stable commit bc1ca06998c1cb6d58e02e0f28c032ec88eb45dd)
This regresses and kills my wifi. The following linux-stable v6.12.64
already has the fix with a description of the bug that I am experiencing:

wifi: rtw88: limit indirect IO under powered off for RTL8822CS
[ Upstream commit f3ccdfda345ca9a624ea425840a926b8338c1e25 ]
The indirect IO is necessary for RTL8822CS, but not necessary for other
chips. Otherwiese, it throws errors and becomes unusable.
rtw88_8723cs mmc1:0001:1: WOW Firmware version 11.0.0, H2C version 0
rtw88_8723cs mmc1:0001:1: Firmware version 11.0.0, H2C version 0
rtw88_8723cs mmc1:0001:1: sdio read32 failed (0xf0): -110
rtw88_8723cs mmc1:0001:1: sdio write8 failed (0x1c): -110
rtw88_8723cs mmc1:0001:1: sdio read32 failed (0xf0): -110
By vendor driver, only RTL8822CS and RTL8822ES need indirect IO, but
RTL8822ES isn't supported yet. Therefore, limit it to RTL8822CS only.
