X-Git-Tag: firefly_0821_release~40857^2~1^2~125
X-Git-Url: http://demsky.eecs.uci.edu/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=68e4e036b841d5fb23ae1ac51b1e40baf9d582bf;p=firefly-linux-kernel-4.4.55.git

[PATCH] Changed 802.11 headers to use ieee80211_info_element[0]

Changed 802.11 headers to use ieee80211_info_element as zero sized
array so that sizeof calculations do not account for IE sizes.
