Subject: [PATCH 06/19] rt2x00: Generate sw sequence numbers only for devices that need it
Date: Thu, 3 Mar 2011 19:42:01 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <201103031942.02498.IvDoorn@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <201103031941.04133.IvDoorn@gmail.com>

From: Helmut Schaa <helmut.schaa@googlemail.com>

Newer devices like rt2800* own a hardware sequence counter and thus
don't need to use a software sequence counter at all. Add a new driver
flag to shortcut the software sequence number generation on devices that
don't need it.

rt61pci, rt73usb and rt2800* seem to make use of a hw sequence counter
while rt2400pci and rt2500* need to do it in software.
