I lost track, is this file acked by the DT maintainers now?

What I suggest is that we queue this for v5.19. After v5.18-rc1 is
released I could create an immutable branch containing this one commit.
Then I would merge the branch to wireless-next and Greg could merge it
to the staging tree, that way we would minimise the chance of conflicts
between trees.

Greg, what do you think? Would this work for you? IIRC we did the same
with wilc1000 back in 2020 and I recall it went without hiccups.
