[PATCH 5.6 085/106] mac80211: fix channel switch trigger from unknown mesh peer

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri May 01 2020 - 09:45:53 EST


From: Tamizh chelvam <tamizhr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 93e2d04a1888668183f3fb48666e90b9b31d29e6 ]

Previously mesh channel switch happens if beacon contains
CSA IE without checking the mesh peer info. Due to that
channel switch happens even if the beacon is not from
its own mesh peer. Fixing that by checking if the CSA
originated from the same mesh network before proceeding
for channel switch.
