[PATCH 3.12 120/212] prism54: set netdev type to "wlan"

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

 



3.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Williams <dcbw@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 8e3ffa471091c560deb6738ed9ab7445b7a5fd04 upstream.

Userspace uses the netdev devtype for stuff like device naming and type
detection.  Be nice and set it.  Remove the pointless #if/#endif around
SET_NETDEV_DEV too.
