[PATCH] mac80211: don't remove tainted keys after not programming

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

When a key is tainted during resume, it is no longer programmed
into the device; however, it's uploaded flag may (will) be set.
Clear the flag when not programming it because it's tainted to
avoid attempting to remove it again later.
