Merge tag 'staging-5.17-rc8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging

Pull staging driver fixes from Greg KH:
 "Here are three small fixes for staging drivers for 5.17-rc8 or -final,
  which ever comes next.

  They resolve some reported problems:

   - rtl8723bs wifi driver deadlock fix for reported problem that is a
     revert of a previous patch. Also a documentation fix is added so
     that the same problem hopefully can not come back again.

   - gdm724x driver use-after-free fix for a reported problem.

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
  problems"
