commit: 2b5f8b0b44e17e625cfba1e7b88db44f4dcc0441 From: Johannes Berg <[email protected]> Date: Mon, 2 Apr 2012 10:51:55 +0200 Subject: nl80211: ensure interface is up in various APIs
The nl80211 handling code should ensure as much as it can that the interface is in a valid state, it can certainly ensure the interface is running. Not doing so can cause calls through mac80211 into the driver that result in warnings and unspecified behaviour in the driver.
