[PATCH 17/24] iwlwifi: mvm: remove buggy and unnecessary hw_queue initialization

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

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

After converting the driver to TXQs, it no longer has any reason
to initialize vif->hw_queue/vif->cab_queue since it no longer sets
the HW_QUEUE_CONTROL flag. Remove the code that initialized those,
it was broken due to relying on an uninitialized stack value in
used_hw_queues, as Colin reported.
