When use mlanutl on L5.15, will meet below error logs:
root@imx8mqevk:/usr/share/nxp_wireless# ./mlanutl mlan0 hssetpara 2 0xff 0xc8 3 400
mlanutl: Operation not supported
mlanutl: hssetpara fail
This is due to the net common api change the ndo_do_ioctl behavior, it
splits out all the users of SIOCDEVPRIVATE ioctls into a separate
ndo_siocdevprivate callback. All the ioctl functions through
SIOCDEVPRIVATE in mlanutl.c will fail if not follow this upstream api
change. So here change to use new ndo_siocdevprivate instead of
ndo_do_ioctl on L5.15.

P2P test will fail(deadlock) on kernel higher than L5.12,
error log like below:
root@imx8mmevk:~# wpa_cli -i p2p0 p2p_group_add freq=2412
[ 47.284346] Add virtual interface p2p-p2p0-0
'P2P_GROUP_ADD freq=2412' command timed out.
This is because the upgarded kernel change the netdevs
registration/unregistration semantics, new kernel require the drivers
to call cfg80211_(un)register_netdevice() when this is happening due to
a cfg80211 request.
For more details, please refer to the upstream patch:

For the wifi release 17266, we found SDIO8987 and PCIE8997 both may meet
below error logs when run suspend stress test.
"HS not actived, suspend fail!"
For pcie8997 on imx8mp, this may cause system hang. For sdio8987 and
pcie8997 on other platforms, this may cause suspend fail sometimes.
This patch is a workaround for this issue. WCS team still debugging this
issue.

The mwifiex_8997 driver was used for 8997 c-driver on L5.4 Q1/Q2/Q3.
From L5.4 Q4 and L5.10, we start to use one driver -- mxm_wifiex for
8987 and 8997 wifi chip, so deprecate the mwifiex_8997 driver for L5.10.
