Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: remove IEEE80211_STA_BEACON_POLL
Date: Fri, 23 Aug 2013 08:52:12 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130823065200.GA3835@redhat.com> (raw)
When we detect beacon lost we do active AP probing (using nullfunc
frame or probe request), there is no need to have beacon polling. Flag
IEEE80211_STA_BEACON_POLL seems to be used just for historical reasons.
