This allows individual users and deployments to disable mesh support at runtime, i.e. without having to build and maintain a custom kernel.
Based on a patch by Paul Fox <pgf@laptop.org>. Signed-off-by: Sascha Silbe <silbe@activitycentral.com> --- drivers/net/wireless/libertas/main.c | 9 ++++++++- 1 files changed, 8 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) The patch is based on the OLPC 2.6.35 kernel tree, but applies cleanly to wireless-next.
