Subject: [B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH] batman-adv: restructure cfg80211 compat code
Date: Tue, 24 Jan 2017 01:00:30 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170124000030.29160-1-linus.luessing@c0d3.blue> (raw)
This commit restructures the compat code regarding cfg80211 to achieve
the following:
a) Allows to compile kernels < 3.16 with -Werror by replacing the
"#warning" with a runtime warning through pr_warn_once().
b) Allows to run < 3.16 kernels without warnings if no cfg80211 based
interface is used.
c) Migrates cfg80211 compat code from compat.h to compat cfg80211.h to
keep compat.h slim.
