Johannes Berg 898324025f wext: default to y
The way I initially thought we could do wireless extensions
is by making all the compat code in cfg80211 be independent
of CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT, but this is turning out to not be
feasible. Therefore, fix the Kconfig help text and make the
option default to yes, so people won't get a nasty surprise
when mac80211 will get rid of its 'select WIRELESS_EXT' any
time now.

You can enable this if you want to debug regulatory changes.
If unsure, say N.

config WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY
bool "Old wireless static regulatory definitions"
default n
---help---
This option enables the old static regulatory information
and uses it within the new framework. This option is available
for historical reasons and it is advised to leave it off.
For details see:
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/developers/Regulatory
Say N and if you say Y, please tell us why. The default is N.
config WIRELESS_EXT
bool "Wireless extensions"
default y
---help---
This option enables the legacy wireless extensions
(wireless network interface configuration via ioctls.)
Say Y unless you've upgraded all your userspace to use
nl80211 instead of wireless extensions.
config WIRELESS_EXT_SYSFS
bool "Wireless extensions sysfs files"
default y
depends on WIRELESS_EXT && SYSFS
help
This option enables the deprecated wireless statistics
files in /sys/class/net/*/wireless/. The same information
is available via the ioctls as well.
Say Y if you have programs using it, like old versions of
hal.
config LIB80211
tristate "Common routines for IEEE802.11 drivers"
default n
help
This options enables a library of common routines used
by IEEE802.11 wireless LAN drivers.
Drivers should select this themselves if needed. Say Y if
you want this built into your kernel.
