[PATCH] mac80211: remove useless DA checking in ieee80211_rx_mgmt_probe_resp()

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

 



Actually the DA field has already been checked along the rx path (in
prepare_for_handlers()) and this check is therefore useless at this point.
