[PATCH 4.14 32/72] mac80211: dont WARN on bad WMM parameters from buggy APs
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Dec 20 2018 - 04:36:00 EST
4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
[ Upstream commit c470bdc1aaf36669e04ba65faf1092b2d1c6cabe ]
Apparently, some APs are buggy enough to send a zeroed
WMM IE. Don't WARN on this since this is not caused by a bug
on the client's system.
This aligns the condition of the WARNING in drv_conf_tx
with the validity check in ieee80211_sta_wmm_params.
We will now pick the default values whenever we get
a zeroed WMM IE.
This has been reported here:
