Subject: cfg80211: remove get/set antenna and tx power warnings
From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 6cbf6236d54c24b9a29e6892549c25b6902b44ce upstream.
Since set_tx_power and set_antenna are frequently implemented
without the matching get_tx_power/get_antenna, we shouldn't
have added warnings for those. Remove them.
The remaining ones are correct and need to be implemented
symmetrically for correct operation.
Fixes: de3bb771f471 ("cfg80211: add more warnings for inconsistent ops")
