rt2x00: Antenna diversity does not work in 2.6.35
The test if antenna diversity is at all enabled uses a local variable 'flags' to prepare the test condition, but uses 'ant->flags' when the test is evaluated. The effect is that the diversity evaluation will never start. I can see two solutions, use the 'flag' in the test condition or revert the local flag change. My attached patch took alternative two. Then the evaluation start but it will still not switch antenna. The problem is a code section in rt2x00lib_config_antenna (). The effect of that code section is that any change the diversity function perform will be effectively shorten and no antenna selection command issued. The attached patch will filter out any ANTENNA_SW_DIVERSITY setting but forward all other Signed-off-by: Lars Ericsson <lars_ericsson@telia.com> Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
