[PATCH 3.8 43/91] mac80211: use sta_info_get_bss() for nl80211 tx and client probing

From: Kamal Mostafa
Date: Thu Nov 07 2013 - 21:21:03 EST


3.8.13.13 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Felix Fietkau <nbd@xxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 03bb7f42765ce596604f03d179f3137d7df05bba upstream.

This allows calls for clients in AP_VLANs (e.g. for 4-addr) to succeed
