[PATCH 3/6] ath9k: Fix FastChannelChange for AR9462/AR9565

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

 



From: Sujith Manoharan <c_manoha@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Right now, even though these chips support cross-band
FCC, the code is non-functional since we bail out early if
the channelFlags differ. Fix this so that cross-band
FCC works for cards that support this feature.
