From: Johannes Berg Date: Fri, 24 Oct 2008 18:32:20 +0000 (+0200) Subject: wireless: make regdom passing semantics simpler X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d2372b315289aec9f565a855023c40654a5bff68;p=GitHub%2Fmt8127%2Fandroid_kernel_alcatel_ttab.git wireless: make regdom passing semantics simpler The regdom struct is given to the core, so it might as well free it in error conditions.
