From 74e13060f11dbf4028b810e34c359f64929415f3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Wed, 3 Jul 2013 20:55:38 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ath9k: make rfkill configurable When the platform doesn't have rfkill support, i.e. nothing is connected to the rfkill GPIO, there's little value in polling the GPIO. Add a Kconfig option to allow disabling the polling in ath9k. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W.
