From 7bcfaf2f431c09c51fe776fc06638b25d3b421c5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Tue, 27 Oct 2009 12:59:03 +0100 Subject: cfg80211/mac80211: use debugfs_remove_recursive We can save a lot of code and pointers in the structs by using debugfs_remove_recursive(). First, change cfg80211 to use debugfs_remove_recursive() so that drivers do not need to clean up any files they added to the per-wiphy debugfs (if and only if they are ok to be accessed until after wiphy_unregister!). Then also make mac80211 use debugfs_remove_recursive() where necessary -- it need not remove per-wiphy files as cfg80211 now removes those, but netdev etc. files still need to be handled but can now be removed without needing struct dentry pointers to all of them.

Therefore generic software rate control is rather useless for them and just adds avoidable overhead to the transmit path. It's fairly simple to let drivers indicate that they do not need rate control, but they need to fulfil a number of conditions that we encode in WARN_ONs.
