Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: move WEP weak IV check
Date: Fri, 28 May 2010 14:24:19 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1275049460.3909.99.camel@jlt3.sipsolutions.net> (raw)

I suspect the compiler will do this optimisation
anyway, but it seems cleaner to move this into
the WEP switch case.

Also make rx_h_decrypt use a local variable for
the frame_control so that we don't need to reload
the hdr variable for this after linearizing.
