Description

Sorry for my bad English.
I have a MT7612E MiniPCIe card, with PA/LNA.But works badly on openwrt.
I contacted the 7612E wireless card manufacturer, the factory has written the data to the on-chip efuse, this area is one-time, cannot be erased after the write.
So I want to know how to make the driver use build-in efuse instead of reading EEPROM.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the MT7612E driver logic that selects EEPROM data and compare it with the card's on-chip eFuse path described here. Done would mean determining whether built-in eFuse data can be used reliably and documenting or implementing the required behavior.
