   This PR mostly meets the NuttX requirements but is missing some crucial 
information. Here's a breakdown:
   
   **Strengths:**
   
   * **Clear Summary:**  The summary explains the *what* and *why* of the 
change well.  The mention of Kconfig prefix changes is helpful.
   * **Impact - Feature Change:** Clearly states the reduction in code 
duplication.
   * **Impact - Performance:** Explicitly states no performance impact, which 
is important.
   
   **Weaknesses:**
   
   * **Summary - How:**  While the *what* is clear, the *how* is lacking 
detail. It mentions using the common layer, but doesn't explain the mechanism 
of code sharing (e.g., file moves, symbolic links, etc.).
   * **Missing Issue References:**  No related NuttX issue(s) are referenced. 
Even if there isn't a directly related issue, it's good practice to create one 
to document the motivation and discussion around the change.
   * **Impact - User:** While stating "no difference in performance" addresses 
one aspect of user impact, it doesn't cover potential configuration changes.  
The Kconfig prefix changes *will* impact users, as they will need to adjust 
their configurations. This needs to be explicitly acknowledged and documented.  
The PR should explain how users should migrate their existing configurations.
   * **Impact - Build:** The Kconfig changes definitely impact the build 
process.  This needs to be described. At minimum, it should mention the 
configuration changes required.
   * **Impact - Hardware:** Even if no architectural changes occur, explicitly 
stating which architectures (ESP32, ESP32S3) and boards are affected is 
important.
   * **Impact - Documentation:**  Given the Kconfig changes, documentation 
updates are almost certainly required.  This needs to be acknowledged, and 
ideally, the PR should include the updated documentation or a separate PR for 
documentation should be mentioned.
   * **Impact - Security/Compatibility:** Even if there's no impact, explicitly 
stating "NO" for these sections is better than leaving them blank.
   * **Testing - Insufficient Detail:** "Internal CI testing" is too vague.  
Specific target architectures, boards, and configurations tested should be 
listed.  Ideally, snippets of relevant log output demonstrating the 
functionality before and after the change should be included (even if just a 
few key lines). The build host details are also missing.
   
   **Recommendations for Improvement:**
   
   1. **Elaborate on the "How":** Explain the technical implementation details 
of using the common WiFi code.
   2. **Link to a NuttX Issue:** Create an issue describing the motivation for 
this change and link it to the PR.
   3. **Detail User Impact:**  Explicitly describe the Kconfig changes and 
provide instructions for users to migrate their configurations.
   4. **Detail Build Impact:**  Explain the build changes due to Kconfig 
modifications.
   5. **Specify Affected Hardware:** List the specific architectures (ESP32, 
ESP32S3) and boards impacted.
   6. **Address Documentation:** Explain how the documentation is updated (or 
will be updated in a separate PR).
   7. **Explicitly address Security and Compatibility:** Even if there's no 
impact, state "NO" for clarity.
   8. **Provide Detailed Testing Information:** Specify the build hosts, target 
architectures, boards, configurations, and include relevant log snippets.
   
   
   By addressing these weaknesses, the PR will be much stronger and better 
adhere to the NuttX requirements.
