Subject: [PATCH V4] brcmfmac: print errors if creating interface fails
Date: Fri, 27 May 2016 01:03:07 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1464303792-3041-1-git-send-email-zajec5@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1464216299-25232-1-git-send-email-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)
