[PATCH] staging wlan-ng: fix to allow driver to be built on2.6.33-rc6

From: Richard Kennedy
Date: Thu Feb 04 2010 - 06:33:57 EST


Due to the re-factoring of wext in commit
3d23e349d807177eaf519d444677cee86b1a04cf

WIRELESS_EXT must now be selected in Kconfig to allow this driver to be
built.

Also remove iw_handle_def private initialisations as they are no longer
need these.

Hi Greg,
I hadn't built this driver for a while & just noticed that it doesn't
built on 2.6.33-rc6.
Here's a minimal fix to at least get it going.

I didn't add the WEXT_SPY support as I've never used it & don't really
know how to test it. But if someone needs it, I can give it a try.

patch against 2.6.33-rc6
Tested on fedora, and with the fix the card in my laptop works :)

regards
Richard
