[RESEND][PATCH] p54: re-enable power save feature

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

 



This patch re-enables p54's power save features and adds a workaround
which temporarily alters the device's power state in order to allow
ps-polls to be sent and buffered data to be retrieved during psm.
