If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ [ Upstream commit c470bdc1aaf36669e04ba65faf1092b2d1c6cabe ] Apparently, some APs are buggy enough to send a zeroed WMM IE. Don't WARN on this since this is not caused by a bug on the client's system. This aligns the condition of the WARNING in drv_conf_tx with the validity check in ieee80211_sta_wmm_params. We will now pick the default values whenever we get a zeroed WMM IE.
