(the problem is not in this driver) Causes network tools to hang on 6.1.66

This causes hangs with network tools (e.g. ifconfig) when using 6.1.66, specifically when torvalds/linux@307a652 is applied.

Hi @MaxHearnden

I am aware of this issue. The problem is in the mainline kernel, not this driver. Your best option is to use the last known kernel that is working until such time as your distro releases a newer kernel.

network tools (e.g. ifconfig)

ifconfig has been depreciated for many years. Recommend you use ip and iw. They are the modern supported network tools.
