Unfortunately, one of the changes involves a delay of 50 msec. The calling code will be modified so that this long delay can be avoided; however, this change is being pushed now to fix the problem in kernel 4.6.0.

That will be good as it will be ported to 4.6 quickly after that. Larry -- 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
