[PATCH 3.16 076/192] mwifiex: do not update MCS set from hostapd

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

 



3.16.49-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ganapathi Bhat <gbhat@xxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 8a063a27815a759b99ad710402da1ccd1b0987f7 upstream.

We should not copy the MCS set from hostapd RX-STBC. We
have to just use the MCS set supported by the hardware.
This fixes an issue, where mwifiex is advertising wrong
MCS sets in beacons.

Fixes: 474a41e94dfc ("mwifiex: update MCS set as per RX-STBC bit from hostapd")
