[PATCH 4/4] mac80211: make off-channel work generic

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

 



This changes mac80211 to allow being off-channel for
any type of work, not just the 'remain-on-channel'
work. This also helps fast transition to a BSS on a
different channel.
