During interface creation, following print is observed on the console - Timeout while waiting for regulatory update This occurs due to commit906619a009("wifi: ath12k: handle regulatory hints during mac registration"), which introduced a completion mechanism to synchronize the regulatory update process. The intent behind this change is to coordinate the timing between when the firmware sends regulatory data to the driver and when the driver processes that data. However, during interface addition, if the 6 GHz band is active, the driver invokes ath12k_regd_update() to apply the appropriate 6 GHz power mode regulatory settings. At this point, there is no interaction with the firmware, so the completion object is not reinitialized. As a result, wait_for_completion() eventually times out, leading to the observed error log message. Hence to fix this, move all complete() on regd_update_completed to complete_all(). The complete() function signals only once, causing any subsequent waits without reinitialization to timeout. In this scenario, since waiting is unnecessary, complete_all() can be used instead, ensuring that subsequent calls to wait without reinitialization will simply bail out and not actually wait. This approach is ideal because if the firmware is not involved, there is no need to wait for the completion event. However, if the firmware is involved, it is guaranteed that the completion will be reinitialized, and thus, it would wait.

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 reStructuredText 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.
