[PATCH 5.6 02/10] mac80211: fix authentication with iwlwifi/mvm

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

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

commit be8c827f50a0bcd56361b31ada11dc0a3c2fd240 upstream.

The original patch didn't copy the ieee80211_is_data() condition
because on most drivers the management frames don't go through
this path. However, they do on iwlwifi/mvm, so we do need to keep
the condition here.
