The short answer is: no, not yet.
I have a tree with initial rtw88 USB and SDIO work in progress but the
LinuxKPI USB was done a decade++ ago and is out of date but also fully
entangled with the native USB.
Now we need to add more fields and things are conflicting; I started
using a rather bad hack for the "LinuxKPI placeholder" in the main stack
so far but not upstreamed it given there is more work to do.
If someone is interested to keep working on it I'll put a branch up
somewhere.
