Your request would break all the systems that were helped by this patch. You need to report this on linux-wireless@vger.kernel.org with full documentation such as selected dmesg output, etc. so that a fix can be obtained for everyone.

No need, it is already reverted in the current wireless tree anyway. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+owner@opensuse.org

FWIW, even if the revert wasn't in the wireless tree, reverting the patch is the right thing to do. It's a regression for all the devices that used to work. - -Jeff - -- Jeff Mahoney SUSE Labs -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.18 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJRD9azAAoJEB57S2MheeWytcwP/382NA7OJeoi1rkPs1S+f2xQ yNCMQooPWKfbx6/2XViJTC4hhN2ugs2Zrx2Jy7nt2/9jCGpE/eBn5vBSJrOsIw2z IcZLVKR0BY6nwYTtA4A8NRO0agF1BpN+CBxcwg5s+ZFhQd8Q4N7EDNSsROSrvS8D mJQQVS8ZQdshD4/q+qBT1jPuRvvMVZHkZynEUgndNdK+oOD7JvO26LJrlUwz/m+A H1ZlEuUDNdTXCXrAQi1HyRtCpNtNkO6bbvkJzj9J61B4MGtTgEBpf5j+AOMxgRl8 VAL1zYZ/fsIbtWz0G1ENVhpX1SI+Igijr9Eg1HVtK9+IPxfHXUxA9XJkBiGyMBtp lK9npblCkrVVkz+PNzekjdPs14Mzw1ZR1WAVBCbbeBYaGEc0Av/+7KE88H6ICJvN wW8539fHZ/X3mLYW41K9xBdHhZG5hS7ofCPiX5VXf/NhQ7IPpoCg37dV038AHqaP 4L7DXaBDLVDFfTzPmjK7ApxscLvsBkPNC1nD+5dBTM1COSEJqEjv4T5gHv8NXxw5 DQOzdfuFIrgPJVDn+fqGpXI8oejWG4YuZxpk0f/ULplfI4sdPKMHlAcj+zrHeF/V 7zKgaibktpsuAtnIl9oHn3/2xFQ3hMFZkCnvzlgyDUG/9Cb9QYDgwDvT6k3WpZjL Ly8ctzZFOGcyj6jYfeBO =Vt6X -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+owner@opensuse.org
