From 382a103b2b528a3085cde4ac56fc69d92a828b72 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Fri, 22 Mar 2013 22:30:09 +0100 Subject: mac80211: fix idle handling sequence Corey Richardson reported that my idle handling cleanup (commit fd0f979a1b, "mac80211: simplify idle handling") broke ath9k_htc. The reason appears to be that it wants to go out of idle before switching channels. To fix it, reimplement that sequence.
