Subject: [PATCH RESEND mac80211-next] cfg80211: remove unused callback

From: Matteo Croce <[email protected]>

The ieee80211 class registers a callback which actually does nothing.
Given that the callback is optional, and all its accesses are protected
by a NULL check, remove it entirely.

Resend using proper mac80211-next tag
