[PATCH 4.16 200/279] mac80211: use timeout from the AddBA response instead of the request

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Jun 18 2018 - 05:32:50 EST


4.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Sara Sharon <sara.sharon@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 914eac248d876f9c00cd1792ffec3d182c863f13 ]

2016 spec, section 10.24.2 specifies that the block ack
timeout in the ADD BA request is advisory.

That means we should check the value in the response and
act upon it (same as buffer size).
