Subject: RE: [PATCH] Bluetooth: btrtl: Load FW v2 otherwise FW v1 for RTL8852C
Dear All,
Please check my comment inline. Thanks.
P.S. Fix the typo for the previous one.
BRs,

Actually, we thought this note is enough. If users update linux-firmware, backport will be work.
However, the commit violate the firmware guideline.
"At the same time updated firmware files must not cause any regressions for users of older kernel releases."
We will revert the commit and send a new commit for rtl8852cu_fw_v2.bin

We will revert '55e7448533e7 ("rtl_bt: Update RTL8852C BT USB firmware to 0x040D_7225")'
and add a new commit for rtl8852cu_fw_v2.bin.
