It's kind of expected that we lose a beacon once in a while, so we shouldn't print verbose messages to the kernel log (even if they are KERN_DEBUG). And besides that, I think one can easily remotely trigger this message and flood the logs. So it should probably _also_ be ratelimited. -- Greetings, Michael. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
