[PATCH 39/48] libertas: stop using ieee80211 for radiotap device

[David Woodhouse]

Date: Sun, 9 Dec 2007 16:22:21 -0500

There seems to be no point in doing it as an ieee80211 device instead of
a normal netdev, and when we override its ->priv and then call
free_ieee80211() it has a distressing tendency to crash horribly.
