From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>
commit b95d2ccd2ccb834394d50347d0e40dc38a954e4a upstream.
When a frame is transmitted via the nl80211 TX rather than as a
normal frame, IEEE80211_TX_CTRL_PORT_CTRL_PROTO wasn't set and
this will lead to wrong decisions (rate control etc.) being made
about the frame; fix this.
Fixes: 911806491425 ("mac80211: Add support for tx_control_port")
