[PATCH] ath9k_htc: introduce support for different fw versions

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

 



Current kernel support only one fw name with theoretically only one
fw version. By replacing fw with other version we will break compatibility
with older kernels.

To avoid this kind of regression this patch will reuse fw version model
from iwlwifi driver.
