This is like an automatic rejection before I even read the patch. Sorry.

(The original didn't actually look exactly like I said, it looked like garbage, but you understand what I mean about the position of the "&&" characters.) Btw, really it should be: if (is_valid_ether_addr(pbyDesireBSSID)) regards, dan carpenter _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
