From: Greg KH
Date: Wed Nov 09 2011 - 22:56:31 EST


3.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Eliad Peller <eliad@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 6911bf0453e0d6ea8eb694a4ce67a68d071c538e upstream.

When going back on-channel, we should reconfigure
the hw iff the hardware is not already configured
to the operational channel.
