Subject: [PATCH] lib80211: make lib80211 can be enabled independently
Date: Fri, 5 Apr 2013 00:01:30 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130404160130.GA2577@udknight> (raw)

Current we can only enable lib80211 by enable a driver
in tree use it which will select it, but some out tree's
drivers also use it, so I think it has sense to make lib80211
can be enabled independently.

A example of the out tree's drivers use lib80211 is:
hybird driver(wl) for Broadcom Corporation BCM43225 802.11b/g/n
