From 638af07386972861272ed9d0cff01cad528fdceb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Denis ChengRq Date: Tue, 23 Sep 2008 02:35:37 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] wireless: a global static to local static improvement There are two improvements in this simple patch: 1. wiphy_counter is a static var only used in one function, so can use local static instead of global static; 2. wiphy_counter wrap handling killed one comparision; Signed-off-by: Denis ChengRq Signed-off-by: John W.
