Subject: [PATCH V6] brcmfmac: print errors if creating interface fails
Date: Fri, 27 May 2016 10:54:28 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1464339268-27916-1-git-send-email-arend@broadcom.com> (raw)

From: Rafał Miłecki <zajec5@gmail.com>

This is helpful for debugging. Without this all I was getting from "iw"
command on failed creating of P2P interface was:
> command failed: Too many open files in system (-23)
