The firmware verion we used is 80.0 (signature 0x88c1)

Apply your new patch, then turn on/off the wireless network switch on the network control panel serverl loops.
The log shows:
[   85.384429] [pid:221,cpu6,kworker/u16:6,5]REG_RCR corrupted in rtl8xxxu_configure_filter: 0x70006009 insted of 0x700060ce

And if we up/down the interface serverl loops as follows:
ifconfig wlx08bexxxxxx down
sleep 1
ifconfig wlx08bexxxxxx up
sleep 10
The log shows:

We also update the  firmware verion to 88.2, and the test results are the same as above.

Thank you for helping debug this issue, which seems to be related to specific devices.
