and your change is just making this comment worse.
really??? Not sure about it.

I agree with Julian. I'm fairly sure it's worse.
The change you suggest doesn't parse well and is extremely odd.
If you _really_ want to just change this use (and the others),
I repeat his suggestion of "by default".

I agree with Julian and Joe. Your suggested change makes it worse!

To match ALL previous commits/patches for these drivers, the subject should be "rtlwifi: <driver_name>: Fix description of usage of own bit in descriptor"

For all drivers, that comment should be written as:
/* By default, a beacon packet will only use the first
* descriptor and the own bit may not be cleared by the hardware
*/
