[PATCH ath-next 2/2] wifi: ath11k: Correctly copy the hint BSSID in WMI scan request
From: Jeff Johnson
Date: Mon Jul 13 2026 - 12:21:56 EST
Currently, in ath11k_wmi_send_scan_start_cmd(), the logic to populate
the hint_bssid copies the BSSID in the wrong direction, from the
firmware message to the argument buffer. Swap the parameters so that
the BSSID is correctly populated in the firmware message from the
argument buffer.
This issue was reported on ath12k, but exists in ath11k as well.
Compile tested only.
