3.16.74-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx> commit 588f7d39b3592a36fb7702ae3b8bdd9be4621e2f upstream. When receiving a robust management frame, drop it if we don't have rx->sta since then we don't have a security association and thus couldn't possibly validate the frame.
