Re: [PATCH] ath11k: pci: avoid unsafe register access during shutdown

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Balsam, do you have a patch for this? I also have cards that require different
bin files for each band. I haven't been able to figure out how to do this via
configuration rather than rebuilding drivers.

Thanks.
