In the code before "ath6kl: Maintain virtual interface in a list" this
test was not run in Ad-Hoc mode, but now it is run. AFAICS it shouldn't
create any issues, but wanted to point out anyway.
Also, as discussed earlier, it's better to have braces when you have a
comment in a single line if statement. But this is a minor style issue
and can be fixed later. Any case here are examples what I mean:
if (foo)
return 0;
if (bar) {
/* this is a comment */
return 0;
}
/* this is a second comment */
if (foobar)
return 0;
