[PATCH] fix irq flags in mac80211 code

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Thu May 01 2008 - 18:49:13 EST



A file in the net/mac80211 directory uses "int" for flags. This can
cause hard to find bugs on some architectures. This patch converts the
flags to use "long" instead.

This bug was discovered by doing an allyesconfig make on the -rt kernel
where checks are done to ensure all flags are of size sizeof(long).
