With TI's 12xx, we actually do want to let the host suspend itself even when acting as an AP, because the 12xx firmware itself is responsible for sending beacons, and responding to probe requests, without involving the host. So in case there's no traffic going on, the host can stay suspended even if we have stations connected. -- 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
