Starting with kernel 6.1 rc1, mt7612u and mt7610u are hard locking
systems when connection is established. From a report this morning:
"So I'm using a MT7610U based adapter and updated to 6.1.1 in Arch
Linux and it's a complete lockup a few seconds after connecting as
other people have said, I'll use the LTS kernel (5.15) in the
meanwhile but this is probably going to get a lot of people that use
distros with newer kernels."
Background: Problem first discovered with kernel 6.1 rc1. Bug report
was seen on linux-wireless around the rc5 timeframe. This is an
additional bug report.
I don't think additional info is needed as I have tested on several
distros with various RC's of 6.1 and the problem is 100% reproducible
and unavoidable. This is a show stopper bug and will result in
widespread reports as distros upgrade to kernel 6.1.
Regards,
Nick

Lorenzo,
Today, I downloaded kernel 6.1.1, applied the above patch and
compiled. Once installed, I tested with an Alfa ACM mt7612u based
adapter. I no longer see the problem. No system lockups at all. iperf3
is showing a consistent performance of around 387 Mb/s. dmesg is
clean. The patch appears to have fixed the issue. I can also test with
a mt7610u based adapter if you think it is necessary but since that
patch was not to mt76, I decided testing only with the mt7612u adapter
was probably good enough. Let me know if there is anything else I can
do.

no, it is not necessary to test with mt7610u as well. Thanks for testing.
