[PATCHv2 01/16] mwifiex: set fw api info for backword compatibility

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

 



If we dont set FW API info here, for older FW releases where FW API
is not available in GET_HW_SPEC, API version would remain 0.
This may cause issues with 11ac if older FW is used with newer driver.
