Hi Greg,

This is a dependency patch to the actual fix ,
[PATCH 2/2 - linux-stable-4.4] ath10k: rebuild crypto header in rx data frames.

We would like both these patches to be upstreamed to 4.4 together.

As mentioned in cover, These patches depends on 3 other mac80211 patches so the below mac80211 commits needs to be picked first in the same order and then apply this patchset.

f980ebc058c2 : mac80211: allow not sending MIC up from driver for HW crypto
f631a77ba920 : mac80211: allow same PN for AMSDU sub-frames
cef0acd4d7d4 : mac80211: Add RX flag to indicate ICV stripped

These patches should be applied in that order(commit f980ebc058c2 first) and they should apply cleanly with --3-way merge.

Kindly revert if you face any issues.

Thanks,
Sriram.R

commit 2f38c3c01de945234d23dd163e3528ccb413066d upstream.

Chipset from QCA99X0 onwards (QCA99X0, QCA9984, QCA4019 & future)
rx_hdr_status is not padded to align in 4-byte boundary. Define a
new hw_params field to handle different alignment behaviour between
different hw. This patch fixes improper retrieval of rfc1042 header
with QCA4019. This patch along with "ath10k: Properly remove padding
from the start of rx payload" will fix traffic failure in ethernet
decap mode for QCA4019.
