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.
