Subject: [patch 111/149] wireless: report reasonable bitrate for MCS rates through wext
2.6.32-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: John W. Linville <linville@...driver.com>
commit 254416aae70ab2e6b57fd79782c8a67196234d02 upstream.
Previously, cfg80211 had reported "0" for MCS (i.e. 802.11n) bitrates
through the wireless extensions interface. However, nl80211 was
converting MCS rates into a reasonable bitrate number. This patch moves
the nl80211 code to cfg80211 where it is now shared between both the
nl80211 interface and the wireless extensions interface.
