Subject: [PATCH 1/2] ieee802154: register a device type for the wpan netdev
Date: Sat,  5 Sep 2026 17:20:05 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260905212007.304875-1-adrianox@gmail.com> (raw)

The cfg802154 netdev notifier never sets a device type, so wpan
interfaces lack a sysfs "type". Mirror cfg80211 by calling
SET_NETDEV_DEVTYPE() in a NETDEV_POST_INIT case with a new
wpan_dev_type.
