[RFC PATCH v2 06/13] wifi: mac80211: disallow drivers with HT wider than HE

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

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

To simplify the code in the next patch, disallow drivers
supporting 40 MHz in HT but not HE, since we'd otherwise
have to track local maximum bandwidth per mode there.
