Subject: [PATCH] nl80211: update interface types
Date: Tue, 27 Mar 2007 18:00:26 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1175011226.9282.4.camel@johannes.berg> (raw)

"secondary" type doesn't seem useful, no driver implements it and the
semantics aren't clear either. Hence, don't support that in nl80211 but
do support AP_VLAN type devices.
