No, the correct fixes commit is 21e4b0726dc67 (" rtlwifi: rtl8821ae: Move driver
from staging to regular tree").
This driver was initially placed in staging as it was needed for a special
project, which is the commit that Colin used. As the patch subject states, the
driver was later moved to the regular wireless tree.
That break is required, thus ACKed-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net>
thanks,
Larry
