I had verified with the internal code base whether this is being done, unfortunately no and at least I had tested this patch in my lenovo T400 machine it did not cause any issue. this might fix the issue for the specific platform but I am not sure whether this will not cause any problems in other platforms. these sort for Workarounds were done based on testing in different platforms. Adrian you have any thoughts? -- shafi _______________________________________________ ath9k-devel mailing list ath9k-devel@lists.ath9k.org https://lists.ath9k.org/mailman/listinfo/ath9k-devel
