[PATCH 1/1] iwlwifi: enable 802.11n in Kconfig

[PATCH 1/1] iwlwifi: enable 802.11n in Kconfig

[Tomas Winkler]

This patch removes 'IWL4965_HT: depends on n'  from iwlwifi's Kconfig
1. 11n is functional so no need to make it invisible in the configuration
2. Latest Johannes patch 'cfg80211 API for channels/bitrates, mac80211 and
driver conversion' broke compilation because this config option was
invisible - patch fixing it will be provided later

Hah, and I actually had found code that I knew was going to break but
since I couldn't enable it I ignored it. I didn't know it was already
functional, I would have enabled it if I'd known.

Understood,
The whole mandatory part of 11n, meaning RX is already in so we can
safely enabled it.Even in 2.6.25

Hope the TX part will follow.
Thanks
