[PATCH 4.4 89/91] mac80211: ignore tx status for PS stations in ieee80211_tx_status_ext

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Dec 11 2018 - 10:48:45 EST


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

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

From: Felix Fietkau <nbd@xxxxxxxx>

commit a317e65face482371de30246b6494feb093ff7f9 upstream.

Make it behave like regular ieee80211_tx_status calls, except for the lack of
filtered frame processing.
This fixes spurious low-ack triggered disconnections with powersave clients
connected to an AP.
