[PATCH] iwlwifi: mvm: only send LEDS_CMD when the FW supports it

2017-09-07 Thread Luca Coelho
From: Luca Coelho 

The LEDS_CMD command is only supported in some newer FW versions
(e.g. iwlwifi-8000C-31.ucode), so we can't send it to older versions
(such as iwlwifi-8000C-27.ucode).

To fix this, check for a new bit in the FW capabilities TLV that tells
when the command is supported.

Note that the current version of -31.ucode in linux-firmware.git
(31.532993.0) does not have this capability bit set, so the LED won't
work, even though this version should support it.  But we will update
this firmware soon, so it won't be a problem anymore.

Linus, do you want to apply this directly or should we take it via the
normal route (wireless-drivers -> net)? If your prefer the latter when
I'm planning to submit this to Dave in a day or two and expecting it to
get to your tree in about a week, depending of course what is Dave's
schedule.

Since we have a workaround for the problem, let's just go through the
regular channels. As long as I get the fix through David before the
merge window closes, I'm happy.

Ok, I'll aim to send the pull request to Dave tomorrow.
