The variables in mac80211 are confusing and should be renamed; however, that may take some time to reach a consensus. In the meantime, these changes are needed to get reasonable numbers from bcm43xx-mac80211. Signed-off-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@xxxxxxxxxxxx> --- John, This is wireless-dev material. The extensive renaming patches that were submitted on 4/14 should be discarded.
