[PATCH rtw-next 2/5] wifi: rtlwifi: rtl8192d: report no signal for frames without PHY status
From: Ho Jie Feng
Date: Tue Nov 03 2026 - 05:02:29 EST
Only the first frame of an A-MPDU comes with the PHY status.
This makes mac80211 report the correct value when queried from iw.
Test results (2.4 GHz):
before after
TX 6.1 5.2
RX 29.1 27.1
