From a28975525016ddcbdaab8225666df1cf2dc9cb2d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Fri, 28 Sep 2007 14:01:25 +0200 Subject: [MAC80211]: add "invalid" interface type Since I cannot convince the lazy driver authors (hello Michael) to stop (ab)using the MGMT interface type internally in their drivers, this patch introduces a new _INVALID type especially for their use and changes all affected drivers to use it.
