From 2dedfe1dbdf27ac344584ed03c3876c85d2779fb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Sun, 6 Dec 2020 14:54:47 +0200 Subject: mac80211: ignore country element TX power on 6 GHz Updates to the 802.11ax draft are coming that deprecate the country element in favour of the transmit power envelope element, and make the maximum transmit power level field in the triplets reserved, so if we parse them we'd use 0 dBm transmit power. Follow suit and completely ignore the element on 6 GHz for purposes of determining TX power.
