Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: don't probe if we have probe response
Date: Wed, 03 Feb 2010 13:57:46 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1265201866.29119.90.camel@johannes.local> (raw)

We can now easily determine whether we already
have probe response information for the BSS we
are asked to connect to, in which case there's
little point in probing the BSS again.
