Yes, it does. :) I would see this at some point but CCing me speed things up
quite a lot.

Hi all,
Changes since 20091030:
wl1271 build fails when CONFIG_INET=n.
Should this driver depend on INET?
Why does this driver, unlike all other wireless drivers,
want to use register_inetaddr_notifier()?
wl1271_main.c:(.text+0x271052): undefined reference to `unregister_inetaddr_notifier'
wl1271_main.c:(.text+0x2714d7): undefined reference to `register_inetaddr_notifier'
Yeah, that driver is doing some filtering based on IPv4.
Luca, is that necessary? If so, then we need a patch like the one below...?
Yes, this is necessary. We are doing ARP filtering according to the IP address
of the interface, as you have realized. Our implementation is rather ugly at
the moment, so the plan is to try to get rid of this dependency on INET, but we
need it for now.
Thanks Randy for finding this and thanks John for fixing it.
