[PATCH] rc80211_pid: Fix fast_start parameter handling

flat view
STALE6685d

From: Mattias Nissler <hidden>
Date: 2008-07-07 20:24:08
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: mac80211, the rest · Maintainers: Johannes Berg, Linus Torvalds

This removes the fast_start parameter from the rc_pid parameters information
and instead uses the parameter macro when initializing the rc_pid state. Since the
parameter is only used on initialization, there is no point of making exporting
it via debugfs. This also fixes uninitialized memory references to the
fast_start and norm_offset parameters.

Signed-off-by: Mattias Nissler <redacted>

This should fix the problem. I think this should go into mainline ASAP.

Stefano, any comments?
