If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 5f85a75fcc768647dfc5f84468ac4135b7aa5a77 Author: Bitterblue Smith <rtl8821cerfe2@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Aug 31 19:12:36 2022 +0300 wifi: rtl8xxxu: Fix skb misuse in TX queue selection [ Upstream commit edd5747aa12ed61a5ecbfa58d3908623fddbf1e8 ] rtl8xxxu_queue_select() selects the wrong TX queues because it's reading memory from the wrong address. It expects to find ieee80211_hdr at skb->data, but that's not the case after skb_push(). Move the call to rtl8xxxu_queue_select() before the call to skb_push().
