[PATCH 06/11] ath9k: Skip malformed frames on normal FFT report

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

 



Since we have lots of frames on a normal FFT report don't bother
processing the malformed ones. Only try to fix malformed frames
in case of a short FFT report (only a single frame on the report).
