[PATCH 5.5 076/170] mac80211: Do not send mesh HWMP PREQ if HWMP is disabled

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Mar 31 2020 - 05:07:46 EST


From: Nicolas Cavallari <nicolas.cavallari@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit ba32679cac50c38fdf488296f96b1f3175532b8e ]

When trying to transmit to an unknown destination, the mesh code would
unconditionally transmit a HWMP PREQ even if HWMP is not the current
path selection algorithm.
