With commit 34d21de99cea9 ("net: Move {l,t,d}stats allocation to core and convert veth & vrf"), stats allocation could be done on net core instead of this driver. With this new approach, the driver doesn't have to bother with error handling (allocation failure checking, making sure free happens in the right spot, etc). This is core responsibility now. Move mac80211 driver to leverage the core allocation. Signed-off-by: Breno Leitao <leitao@debian.org> --- net/mac80211/iface.c | 13 +------------ 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 12 deletions(-)
