If it is needed to re-align the frame after stripping the odd 802.11 header to support CPUs that can't handle it, it makes sense to do it there. > John - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
