[PATCH 12/12] cfg80211: Do not warn on same channel at the end of CSA

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

 



From: Ilan Peer <ilan.peer@xxxxxxxxx>

When cfg80211_update_assoc_bss_entry() is called, there is a
verification that the BSS channel actually changed. As some APs use
CSA also for bandwidth changes, this would result with a kernel
warning.

Fix this by removing the WARN_ON().
