[PATCH 3.18 105/120] mac80211: fix setting IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_RX_MGMT for AP mode keys

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Oct 11 2018 - 11:40:49 EST


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

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

From: Felix Fietkau <nbd@xxxxxxxx>

commit 211710ca74adf790b46ab3867fcce8047b573cd1 upstream.

key->sta is only valid after ieee80211_key_link, which is called later
in this function. Because of that, the IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_RX_MGMT is
never set when management frame protection is enabled.
