    cfg80211: allow wext to remove keys that don't exist · e3da574a
    Johannes Berg authored
    Some applications using wireless extensions expect to be able to
    remove a key that doesn't exist. One example is wpa_supplicant
    which doesn't actually change behaviour when running into an
    error while trying to do that, but it prints an error message
    which users interpret as wpa_supplicant having problems.
    
    The safe thing to do is not change the behaviour of wireless
    extensions any more, so when the driver reports -ENOENT let
    the wext bridge code return success to userspace. To guarantee
    this, also document that drivers should return -ENOENT when the
    key doesn't exist.
