From 7311ea85007954e14cb7f5c60ce969f7a4f618c6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Amitkumar Karwar <akarwar@marvell.com> Date: Thu, 16 Jun 2016 18:52:26 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] mwifiex: fix AP start problem for newly added interface It's been observed that if interface type is changed from managed to __ap, AP can be successfully started. But there is a problem if new ap interface is added. The problem got resolved after sending appropriate commands to firmware in add_interface handler.
