[PATCH] mac80211: prevent spurious HT/VHT downgrade message

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

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

Even when connecting to an AP that doesn't support VHT,
and even when the local device doesn't support it either,
the downgrade message gets printed. Suppress the message
if HT and/or VHT is disabled.
