Subject: [PATCH] ath: wil6210: Fix build error
Date: Sat, 20 Jul 2013 21:46:48 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1374374808-12768-1-git-send-email-Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> (raw)
Building driver wil6210 in 3.10 and 3.11 kernels yields the following errors:
CC [M] drivers/net/wireless/ath/wil6210/debugfs.o

These errors are fixed by changing the type of the buffer from "unsigned char *" to "char *".
