Subject: mac80211: deprecate RX status noise
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=62bb2ac5cb6c2f813e151617525ec518e2d1c649;p=linux-beck.git

mac80211: deprecate RX status noise

The noise value as is won't be used, isn't
filled by most drivers and doesn't really
make a whole lot of sense on a per packet
basis -- proper cfg80211 survey support in
mac80211 will need to be different.

Mark the struct member as deprecated so it
will be removed from drivers.
