From: Malcolm Priestley <tvboxspy@xxxxxxxxx>
This patch has been added to the 3.18 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.
===============
[ Upstream commit b23f14302e86628625ac3982a6d23e35888755f2 ]
Information for packet type is in ieee80211_tx_info
band IEEE80211_BAND_5GHZ for PK_TYPE_11A.
IEEE80211_TX_RC_USE_CTS_PROTECT via tx_rate flags selects PK_TYPE_11GB
This ensures that the packet is always the right type.
