The reason why I rename it to the "wl" is that there first is 80 ending line over issue due to its length where I want to modify and also we will take our representative structure as "wl" in the future. As you expected, finally g_linux_wlan global variable will all be deleted by referring it from the private structure as it is introduced in another 13 series of patch. However, as you guided, I will leave it until all of patch is done. Thanks, Tony. > thanks, > > greg k-h
