Subject: [PATCH] staging: rtl8723bs: Remove unused ifname module parameter
Date: Tue, 1 Sep 2026 18:21:44 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260901152144.5978-1-nsvatoslav515@gmail.com> (raw)
Remove the ifname module parameter and the corresponding ifname field in
struct registry_priv. Hardcode the default "wlan%d" interface name format
string directly in rtw_drv_register_netdev().
Suggested-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
