[PATCH] ath9k: make driver usable standalone

From: Pavel Ivanov
Date: Tue Aug 16 2011 - 23:29:04 EST


When ath9k is the only wireless driver included in the build
WIRELESS_EXT configuration option becomes undefined. Because of that
driver becomes essentially unusable as you can't actually connect to
any WiFi network. By including WIRELESS_EXT into Kconfig we ensure
that build with ath9k and without other drivers (having WIRELESS_EXT
selected in their Kconfig) is actually usable.
