[PATCH 1/9] brcmfmac: ignore 11d configuration errors

From: Arend van Spriel <arend.vanspriel@broadcom.com>
Date: 2016-09-19 11:10:14
Subsystem: broadcom brcm80211 ieee802.11 wireless drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Arend van Spriel, Linus Torvalds

From: Hante Meuleman <redacted>

802.11d is not always supported by firmware anymore. Currently the
AP configuration of 11d will cause an abort if the ioctl set is
failing. This behavior is not correct and the error should be
ignored.
