unfortunately the patch is still incomplete. I will fold in the
following change to make it work:
---
--- a/drivers/net/wireless/mediatek/mt76/eeprom.c
+++ b/drivers/net/wireless/mediatek/mt76/eeprom.c
@@ -65,7 +65,9 @@ int mt76_get_of_eeprom(struct mt76_dev *dev, void *eep, int offset, int len)
  	offset = be32_to_cpup(list);
  	ret = mtd_read(mtd, offset, len, &retlen, eep);
  	put_mtd_device(mtd);
-	if (ret && !mtd_is_bitflip(ret)) {
+	if (mtd_is_bitflip(ret))
+		ret = 0;
+	if (ret) {
  		dev_err(dev->dev, "reading EEPROM from mtd %s failed: %i\n",
  			part, ret);
  		goto out_put_node;
