But I already delete the whole fakehard driver. The patch to remove this driver is already in net-next. There was too many issues with the fake hardMAC drivers and we don't really supported a "real" hardMAC transceiver. For my rework to grab the good things from wireless implementation and put 802.15.4 functionality on it I simple delete the whole driver and _maybe_ add a new one with the new introduced interfaces for possible hardMAC functionality. This patch could go into bluetooth(net)/stable but I don't think that there are many users for this driver. - Alex -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
