[PATCH v2 v5.7] iwlwifi: fix WGDS check when WRDS is disabled

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

 



From: Luca Coelho <luciano.coelho@xxxxxxxxx>

In the reference BIOS implementation, WRDS can be disabled without
disabling WGDS.  And this happens in most cases where WRDS is
disabled, causing the WGDS without WRDS check and issue an error.

To avoid this issue, we change the check so that we only considered it
an error if the WRDS entry doesn't exist.  If the entry (or the
selected profile is disabled for any other reason), we just silently
ignore WGDS.
