Subject: [PATCH] staging: Add proper selection of WIRELESS_EXT and WEXT_PRIV
Date: Thu, 01 Oct 2009 13:22:27 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4AC4F363.4080404@lwfinger.net> (raw)
After the incorporation of the patch entitled "wext: refactor", some
of the wireless drivers in drivers/staging fail to build because they
need to have CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT and CONFIG_WEXT_PRIV defined.
Signed-off-by: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net>

John,
I know that Greg K-H maintains staging, but I sent this to you because
your tree is the only one affected at the moment. Greg is Cc'd.
