[020/289] ath9k_hw: handle rx key miss

From: Greg KH
Date: Tue Dec 07 2010 - 21:00:28 EST


2.6.36-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Felix Fietkau <nbd@xxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 3ae74c33c4f799f6bf6d67240a94a0814a8f1944 upstream.

If AR_KeyMiss is set in the rx descriptor and AR_RxFrameOK is unset,
the hardware could not locate a valid key during a decryption attempt.

In this case, the frame must not be reported as decrypted, otherwise
mac80211 sees only random garbage.
