From 436c109adb54433fff689abd71c23a6505e46bb0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bruno Randolf Date: Mon, 7 Jun 2010 13:11:19 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] ath5k: fix NULL pointer in antenna configuration If the channel is not set yet and we configure the antennas just store the setting. It will be activated during the next reset, when the channel is set. Signed-off-by: Bruno Randolf Signed-off-by: John W.
