[PATCH 4/4] mac80211: remove IEEE80211_HW_DATA_NULLFUNC_ACK

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The flag is only propagated to hostapd which doesn't use it.
If we ever add it back please do it in an inverted meaning so
drivers for good hardware don't need to set an ever-growing
list of flags.
