[patch 01/47] b43legacy: Do not return TX_BUSY from op_tx

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

 



2.6.25-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------
From: Michael Buesch <mb@xxxxxxxxx>

Never return TX_BUSY from op_tx. It doesn't make sense to return
TX_BUSY, if we can not transmit the packet.
Drop the packet and return TX_OK.
