[PATCH] mac80211: Fix clang warning about constant operand in logical operation

From: Matthias Kaehlcke
Date: Thu Apr 06 2017 - 14:57:15 EST


Clang raises a warning about the expression 'strlen(CONFIG_XXX)' being
used in a logical operation. Clangs' builtin strlen function resolves the
expression to a constant at compile time, which causes clang to generate
a 'constant-logical-operand' warning.

Split the if statement in two to avoid using the const expression in a
logical operation.
