Subject: [PATCH] cfg80211: add warning when calculating MCS rates >= 32
Date: Tue, 08 May 2012 21:36:20 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1336505780.4320.6.camel@jlt3.sipsolutions.net> (raw)

From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

cfg80211_calculate_bitrate() doesn't work for MCS
rates 32 or higher, and it has always returned 0
in that case. Warn if it ever really happens.
