The only behavior change is that we do not drop packets under any circumstances. If that is absolutely needed, we could easily add it back. With cleanups and help from Johannes Berg. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This option is recommended for driver authors and strongly

discouraged for everybody else, it will trigger a warning

when a driver hands mac80211 a buffer that is aligned in

a way that will cause problems with the IP stack on some

This option affects code generation in mac80211, when

|
selected some functions are marked "noinline" to allow
|
|
easier debugging of problems in the transmit and receive

|
paths.
|
|
|
|
This option increases code size a bit and inserts a lot
|
|
of function calls in the code, but is otherwise safe to

enable.

If unsure, say N unless you expect to be finding problems

in mac80211.
