[PATCH 4/4] mac80211: OCB: remove pointless check for broadcast BSSID

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

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

The OCB input path already checked that the BSSID is the broadcast
address, so the later check can never fail.
