955682965SJohannes Berg         This option turns on the new netlink interface
1055682965SJohannes Berg         (nl80211) support in cfg80211.

1255682965SJohannes Berg         If =n, drivers using mac80211 will be configured via
1355682965SJohannes Berg         wireless extension support provided by that subsystem.

242a5e1c0eSJohannes Berg	  Wireless extensions will be replaced by cfg80211 and
252a5e1c0eSJohannes Berg	  will be required only by legacy drivers that implement
2655682965SJohannes Berg	  wireless extension handlers. This option does not
2755682965SJohannes Berg	  affect the wireless-extension backward compatibility
2855682965SJohannes Berg	  code in cfg80211.
