yes I was deploying the firmware again on the machine after doing make package/mac80211/update.
Also, there was no info on packages page that one has to do make package/mac80211/compile ? I was interested in knowing do I have to change anything in makefiles if I add another header file in the folder as a part of patch ? or is it that if a corresponding .c file is present, its .h file is taken by default(as in usual make) ?
