From 254416aae70ab2e6b57fd79782c8a67196234d02 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "John W. Linville" Date: Wed, 9 Dec 2009 16:43:52 -0500 Subject: wireless: report reasonable bitrate for MCS rates through wext Previously, cfg80211 had reported "0" for MCS (i.e. 802.11n) bitrates through the wireless extensions interface. However, nl80211 was converting MCS rates into a reasonable bitrate number. This patch moves the nl80211 code to cfg80211 where it is now shared between both the nl80211 interface and the wireless extensions interface. Signed-off-by: John W.
