      What is the impact of this issue to you?

      journal is spammed with the following messages:

      Dec 13 17:04:06 wpa_supplicant[4438]: wlp1s0: CTRL-EVENT-SIGNAL-CHANGE above=1 signal=-57 noise=9999 txrate=780000
      Dec 13 17:04:09 wpa_supplicant[4438]: wlp1s0: CTRL-EVENT-SIGNAL-CHANGE above=1 signal=-54 noise=9999 txrate=585000
      Dec 13 17:04:12 wpa_supplicant[4438]: wlp1s0: CTRL-EVENT-SIGNAL-CHANGE above=1 signal=-55 noise=9999 txrate=585000

      pretty much every 3 seconds

      Please provide the package NVR for which the bug is seen:

      kernel-5.14.0-514.el9.x86_64
      wpa_supplicant-2.10-5.el9.x86_64

      It's possible that this isn't directly a wpa_supplicant issue. I started seeing the messages on Nov 8th which is when the above kernel version was installed.

      Steps to reproduce
