[PATCH v2 5/5] ath10k: implement support for ap beacon offloading

Thu Jan 8 03:12:30 PST 2015


New firmware revisions support beacon and probe
response templates instead. This means SWBA events
are no longer delivered for these firmware
revisions.

Notes:
    v2:
     * add a comment why P2P IE is stripped from beacon template [Kalle]
