Subject: cfg80211: show interface type
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=60719ffd721f6764b7d07ca188c0d944a4330b69;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git

cfg80211: show interface type

This patch makes cfg80211 show the interface in the nl80211
information about a specific interface. API users are required
to keep the type updated (everything else is fairly complicated)
but you will get a warning if you fail to keep it updated.
