Hi,
some time after 4.1
drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/pcie/trans.c
got moved to
drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/pcie/trans.c
Later upstream commit 62d7476d958ce06d7a10b02bdb30006870286fe2
"iwlwifi: pcie: properly configure the debug buffer size for 8000"
fixed something in the new intel/iwlwifi/pcie/trans.c
The patch was backported and included in 4.1.18 as commit
d9d42b679e3653759b107ff99daf8da9c21aaec7. It does nicely apply to the
old file iwlwifi/pcie/trans.c, _however_ by mistake the patch also
introduces a useless copy of the complete file at it's modern home
intel/iwlwifi/pcie/trans.c
The 'fix' would be to delete the surplus file again. I don't know if you
want this, the 2nd copy of trans.c is never compiled, so strictly
speaking it does no harm - except that it confused me enough to write
this mail. :-)
Regards,
Jens
