[PATCH 11/23] mac80211: update conditions for supported channels element

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

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

We should not include the supported channels element if we have
(advertise) support for extended channel switching. Update this
in the code.
