X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9bf9fca8dea70116016d32c2bf3f83170c8fba76;p=linux-beck.git

ath9k: Synchronize DMA transfer with CPU at right place

This patch does pci_dma_sync_single_for_cpu() before accessing
the header of the frame and queueing the same buffer into h/w.
