Subject: [PATCH] wireless:  Add ifname to STOP_AP event.
Date: Wed, 10 Jun 2015 15:17:05 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1433974625-327-1-git-send-email-greearb@candelatech.com> (raw)

From: Ben Greear <greearb@candelatech.com>

In case user-space wants to know the name of the
device, this will save a name lookup by index, and
in case where kernel manages to fully delete the
interface before user-space can determine the name,
this will ensure user-space has proper name.
