Subject: [PATCH 26/43] iwlwifi: fix in-column rate scaling
Date: Thu, 29 May 2008 16:35:11 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1212050128-17132-27-git-send-email-yi.zhu@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1212050128-17132-26-git-send-email-yi.zhu@intel.com>

From: Guy Cohen <guy.cohen@intel.com>

This patch fixes cases that the code raised or didn't decrease
the rate although the success ratio was not good.
