Why have both signal and rssi measures?


In the bcm43xx driver, the values are different. There is a routine that converts from rssi as a 
positive number into signal in a negative number that looks like dBm. Because of the reverse 
engineering, we have no idea what the logic behind this is, but I thought that we should keep it.

Patches should convert the code they are touching to coding style common
in the kernel. This way we will gradually convert at least part of
d80211 to the kernel coding style; the rest will be addressed by one big
patch just before merging into the vanilla (or -mm).

Thanks,

Noted on the first part, but I would like a clarification regarding style. I put the */ on the 
second line to match the rest of that section. Should a patch try to keep the local style in that 
part of the code, or change it to a some other standard?

Please do not touch parts outside of the code you are
fixing/improving/etc. We'll need a code style patch later, but not now -
there are still too many patches floating around and I don't want to
break them more than is necessary.

Other then that, it looks good.

Thanks,

 Jiri
