Sure Johannes. We need to fix carrier state handling in ndo_open and this patch would not be needed.

I'll drop this completely for now. johannes -- 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
