[PATCH] ath10k: remove htt rx amsdu clear retry bit hack

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

 



With commit 0cfcefef1 ("mac80211: support reporting A-MSDU subframes
individually") there's no need to have the hack to clear the retry bit in
ath10k_htt_rx_amsdu(), mac80211 can handle this properly now.
