Subject: [PATCH 2/2] ath9k_hw: allow fast channel change when only CHANNEL_HT changes
Date: Mon, 18 Nov 2013 20:14:44 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1384802084-55082-2-git-send-email-nbd@openwrt.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1384802084-55082-1-git-send-email-nbd@openwrt.org>

The CHANNEL_HT flag is insignificant for fast channel change conditions,
since it does not affect any important part of the hardware reset /
channel setup.
Scanning usually runs with HT disabled, so this change will slightly
improve scan time on many chipsets.
