Subject: [PATCH v2] ath10k: fix group privacy action frame decryption for qca4019
Date: Tue, 9 Aug 2016 12:01:51 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160809063151.25993-1-rmanohar@qti.qualcomm.com> (raw)

Recent commit 'mac80211: Encrypt "Group addressed privacy" action frames'
encrypts group privacy action frames. But qca99x0 family chipset delivers
broadcast/multicast management frames as encrypted and it should be
decrypted by mac80211. Setting RX_FLAG_DECRYPTED stats for those frames
is breaking mesh connection establishment.
