If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 49dce48e2e0f525e4915d4bcce30e0d479b933d4 Author: Issam Hamdi <ih@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Aug 16 16:24:18 2024 +0200 wifi: cfg80211: Set correct chandef when starting CAC [ Upstream commit 20361712880396e44ce80aaeec2d93d182035651 ] When starting CAC in a mode other than AP mode, it return a "WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 63 at cfg80211_chandef_dfs_usable+0x20/0xaf [cfg80211]" caused by the chandef.chan being null at the end of CAC. Solution: Ensure the channel definition is set for the different modes when starting CAC to avoid getting a NULL 'chan' at the end of CAC.
