In that case, I would like to see this change being included in the same patch/patchset.. Without this, I can only NAK this kind of change since it removes functionality needed for some designs and that is not something I would like to see happening with net/d80211 since the goal is to allow all reasonable hardware designs to work with it. > Currently there is no driver using it, so I simply removed it.
