From a40242f2cde38ccb04d4c35cad66aab3c047fa6a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Prasanna S. Panchamukhi" Date: Thu, 8 Apr 2010 16:24:28 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] wimax/i2400m: limit the message size upto 16KiB [v1] According to Intel Wimax i3200, i5x50 and i6x50 specification documents, the maximum size of each TX message can be upto 16KiB. This patch modifies the i2400m_tx() routine to check that the message size does not exceed the 16KiB limit. Please refer the documentation in the code for details. Signed-off-by: Prasanna S.
