As per symmetry with _rtl8821ae_dbi_read(), "wrtie" is not a funky
register acronym, but a simple misspelling of "write".

I'm not sure that it is possible to have a typo in a variable name. That seems 
to be within an author's prerogative. Nonetheless, the patch is OK other than it 
was sent to the wrong destination. Patches for this driver should go through 
linux-wireless@vger.kernel.org. Kalle Valo is the wireless maintainer, but it is 
not necessary to send to him directly as he usually picks up the patches from 
Patchwork.

MAINTAINERS has your name for drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtlwifi/.
Perhaps that line should be dropped?

I guess Jiri (trivial) will pick it up...

The usual hierarchy is through me to Kalle, then to DaveM, and finally to mainline.

The only potential problem would be conflicts arising from changes merging from 
two different directions. It applies to Kalle's wireless-drivers-next branch, 
and I will try to keep it in mind as additional patches are supplied to rtl8821ae.
