From 2bc454b0b30b3645d114689b64321cb49be99923 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Wu Date: Tue, 25 Dec 2007 19:33:16 -0500 Subject: mac80211: Fix rate reporting regression Mattias Nissler's "clean up rate selection" patch incorrectly changes the behavior of txrate setting in sta_info. This patch backs out parts of the rate selection consolidation in order to fix this issue for now. Signed-off-by: Michael Wu Signed-off-by: John W.
