[PATCH for v4.9 LTS 68/86] mac80211: initialize SMPS field in HT capabilities
From: Levin, Alexander (Sasha Levin)
Date: Sat Jun 17 2017 - 18:30:38 EST
From: Felix Fietkau <nbd@xxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 43071d8fb3b7f589d72663c496a6880fb097533c ]
ibss and mesh modes copy the ht capabilites from the band without
overriding the SMPS state. Unfortunately the default value 0 for the
SMPS field means static SMPS instead of disabled.
This results in HT ibss and mesh setups using only single-stream rates,
even though SMPS is not supposed to be active.
Initialize SMPS to disabled for all bands on ieee80211_hw_register to
ensure that the value is sane where it is not overriden with the real
SMPS state.
