Re: [PATCH] mac80211: better rate control algorithm selection

Hi Sam,

Thanks for your reply.

Well, 'ignored' may be too strong since rc80211_pid.o is built from the
latter two objects.

I don't think that will work since the system won't know how to build
rc80211_pid.o. I have another patch inspired by yours which is much
better than my first, just need to test it.
