From 7de3c5dc0ac89b847b00f25d16976c158dc38e4c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Benoit Papillault <benoit.papillault@free.fr> Date: Sun, 3 Jan 2010 10:20:01 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] zd1211rw: Fix multicast filtering. If multicast parameter (as returned by zd_op_prepare_multicast) has changed, no bit in changed_flags is set. To handle this situation, we do not return if changed_flags is 0. If we do so, we will have some issue with IPv6 which uses multicast for link layer address resolution. Signed-off-by: Benoit Papillault <benoit.papillault@free.fr> Signed-off-by: John W.
