Subject: [PATCH] allow AP interfaces to handle BACK action frames
Date: Wed, 08 Oct 2008 16:18:46 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <48ed3fd6.1e068e0a.7847.4d37@mx.google.com> (raw)

Add AP mode to the allowed interface check in ieee80211_rx_h_action.  This
function handles BACK action frames such as ADDBA and AP interfaces need to
receive those.
