Address the issue using the suitable helper. Fixes: 4a3c212eee0e ("wifi: ath12k: add basic WoW functionalities") Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> --- Only built tested. Sending directly to net to reduce the RTT, but no objections to go through the WiFi tree firstSince Kalle is on holiday please go ahead and take this via net. This looks nicer than Kalle's version :)
Indeed, this is nicer. Thanks Paolo! -- https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-wireless/list/ https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/developers/documentation/submittingpatches
