When the function _rtl92e_if_silent_reset() is called the variable
priv->rst_progress is set to RESET_TYPE_SILENT.
Since priv->up is always true the function is left at "if (priv->up) {"
without resetting. Now the function _rtl92e_if_silent_reset() is like
deactivated because the equation at the very beginning is false:
"if (priv->rst_progress == RESET_TYPE_NORESET) {"
This leads to a state where the driver hangs in the reset state and
cannot go forward.
In 30% of the cases the wlan is disconnected and cannot reconnect. The
rest of the time it continues working but no reset is done at all.
Further requests for reset are ignored. Remove broken function
_rtl92e_if_silent_reset() and remove return value of
_rtl92e_if_check_reset() to avoid compiler warnings.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
