Subject: [PATCH] ath6kl_sdio: Fix the EAPOL out of order issue
Send the EAPOL and management frames in the same AC_VO queue. The issue happens when the AP supports QOS, the management frames are sent to AC_VO queue and EAP frame goes to AC_BE queue. Even though the EAP frame is queued before the DEAUTH management frame, as they are queued on different h/w queues, order of delivery between these frames cannot be controlled.
This fixes the connection failure seen in P2P case.
