Subject: cfg80211: dont use union for wext
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c238c8ac63f2d33ea5e7c0b9e9e0ccd8ae9a34e4;p=linux-beck.git

cfg80211: dont use union for wext

Otherwise it becomes very hard to reset the structs
correctly since wext can be configured while the
interface is down.
