Honestly, I also thought of that but there's no meaningful description for these
numbers in the vendor driver. Even based on where they're invoked, I can merely
give a rough definition on 0. So I left it as it is for the covenience
if I have to do
cross-comparison with vendor driver in the future for some possible
unknown bugs.

I think the rtl8723bu_set_ps_tdma() function would cause the line length problem
more than rtl8723bu_set_coex_with_type() at the calling point. But as the same
debug reason as mentioned, I may like to keep it because I don't know how to
categorize the 5 magic parameters. I also reference the latest rtw88
driver code,
it seems no better solution so far. I'll keep watching if there's any
better idea.
