SubjectRe: [PATCH] net/wireless/brcm80211/brcmfmac: Make return type reflect actual semantics

Hi Rasmus,

At the moment the function is indeed only used to determine whether any
vif is in connected state. I am ok with your patch if you would also
rename the function to brcmf_get_vif_state_any(). You may add
'Reviewed-by: Arend van Spriel <arend@broadcom.com>' to the patch.

Regards,
Arend
