[PATCH 4.9 11/68] staging: vt6656: Fix false Tx excessive retries reporting.

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Feb 03 2020 - 11:26:43 EST


From: Malcolm Priestley <tvboxspy@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 9dd631fa99dc0a0dfbd191173bf355ba30ea786a upstream.

The driver reporting IEEE80211_TX_STAT_ACK is not being handled
correctly. The driver should only report on TSR_TMO flag is not
set indicating no transmission errors and when not IEEE80211_TX_CTL_NO_ACK
is being requested.
