From 2c74aa4d73dbed2e879e7eb5ee9de95d40e5298d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Luis R. Rodriguez" Date: Wed, 4 Nov 2009 15:11:05 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] ath9k: move the max rx buffer size check to ath9k_rx_accept() While at it flip the order, seems easier to read and also add some better description as to why we do this check.
