[PATCH net v1 3/3] [RFC] mac80211: ieee80211_store_ack_skb(): make use of skb_clone_sk_optional()

From: Oleksij Rempel
Date: Mon Feb 22 2021 - 10:22:07 EST


This code is trying to clone the skb with optional skb->sk. But this
will fail to clone the skb if socket was closed just after the skb was
pushed into the networking stack.

Fixes: a7528198add8 ("mac80211: support control port TX status reporting")
