From: Johannes Berg Date: Mon, 7 Oct 2024 18:26:56 +0000 (+0200) Subject: staging: don't recommend using lib80211 X-Git-Tag: v6.13-rc1~30^2~216^2~8 X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4991d2e7ad387ca9cf10298453ceaac17c41a639;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Fstable.git staging: don't recommend using lib80211 No longer document drivers should switch to lib80211, they really should never have done that. While at it, also remove the recommendation to use cfg80211, if it switches to mac80211 then it implicitly uses cfg80211 but doesn't need to do anything about that, normally.
