This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled ath10k: high latency fixes for beacon buffer to the 5.14-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: ath10k-high-latency-fixes-for-beacon-buffer.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.14 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 2362401c183f4bbbe2ac137215e63b5ffb61a582 Author: Alagu Sankar <alagusankar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Sep 28 14:00:47 2021 +0300 ath10k: high latency fixes for beacon buffer [ Upstream commit e263bdab9c0e8025fb7f41f153709a9cda51f6b6 ] Beacon buffer for high latency devices does not use DMA. other similar buffer allocation methods in the driver have already been modified for high latency path. Fix the beacon buffer allocation left out in the earlier high latency changes.
