Subject: [RFC] mac80211: make CONFIG_MAC80211_MESH=y default
Date: Sat, 16 Feb 2013 11:22:31 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1361042551-15598-1-git-send-email-thomas@cozybit.com> (raw)

Increases mac80211 memory use by about 95K.

At least Ubuntu, Debian, and Arch Linux already enable
this in their default kernels.
