[PATCH 03/10] mac80211: Don't spam kernel with sdata-in-driver failures.

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

 



From: Ben Greear <greearb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Using 400 hwsim radios with 1 station on each, we see lots and
lots of kernel warnings about sdata-in-driver check failures:

Instead, warn once, and then be silent after that.
