Subject: [PATCH 1/2] ipw2200: Fix order of device registration
Date: Sun, 22 Jan 2012 03:09:35 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1327201775.8004.83.camel@deadeye> (raw)
Currently cfg80211 fails to create a "phy80211" symlink in sysfs from
the net device to the wiphy device. The latter needs to be registered
first.
Compile-tested only.
