[PATCH] orinoco: release BSS structures returned by cfg80211_inform_bss()

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

 



The pointer returned by cfg80211_inform_bss is a referenced
struct. The orinoco driver does not need to keep the struct, so
we just release it.
