The rtl8723bs driver tries to load various parameters from disk, circumventing the standard firmware loader mechanism and using DIY code for this. No devices which run the mainline kernel ship with these files and even if these files were present then they still would not be loaded without additional module parameters. To be precise the following 3 conditions must all 3 be true for on disk parameters to be used: 1) The rtw_load_phy_file modparam must contain the mask for the type, this defaults to(LOAD_BB_PG_PARA_FILE | LOAD_RF_TXPWR_LMT_PARA_FILE) so with the default settings this condition is only true for: phy_ConfigBBWithPgParaFile() PHY_ConfigRFWithPowerLimitTableParaFile(); and 2) rtw_phy_file_path modparam must be set to say "/lib/firmware/"; and 3) Store a /lib/firmware/rtl8723b/XXX file in the expected format. In practice all 3 being true never happens, so the phy_Config*With*ParaFile() calls are nops, remove them. The actual code implementing them will be removed in a separate patch. Note the ODM_ConfigRFWithHeaderFile() and ODM_ConfigBBWithHeaderFile() functions always return HAL_STATUS_SUCCESS, this patch makes use of this to simplify the new code without the phy_Config*With*ParaFile() calls.

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.
