Syspatch retracted (OpenBSD Errata: April 22, 2022 (wifi))

Syspatch syspatch71-001_wifi has been retracted.

A mistake was made in generating the syspatch(8) binary update
syspatch71-001_wifi for this errata. This causes problems installing future
binary updates and reverting the syspatch. Because of this, the syspatch has
been retracted until the issue is resolved. The actual source patch is not
affected from this (and can be applied as described in the patch
instructions) and the syspatch itself works fine as well.

If you already have installed the syspatch71-001_wifi update, you can
continue running with it until we publish instructions on how to recover on
http://www.openbsd.org/errata71.html.
