Hi Loic,
I see. Actually this patch was generated in mhi code base.
But I didn't see any difference of this file between mhi and net.
And, there is another commit may affect this change:

https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20251119105615.48295-3-slark_xiao@xxxxxxx/
- strcmp(cntrl->name, "foxconn-t99w515") == 0)
+ strcmp(cntrl->name, "foxconn-t99w515") == 0 ||
+ strcmp(cntrl->name, "foxconn-t99w760") == 0)

I edited above commit firstly and now it's reviewed status but not applied.
If I update this change based net or net-dev, above T99W760 support
commit then would have a conflict since they are not a common
series. How shall I do to avoid this potential conflict?

Thanks
