| |
2.6.35-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
commit 643f82e32f14faf0d0944c804203a6681b6b0a1e upstream.
Ever since mac80211/drivers are no longer fully in charge of keeping track of the auth status, trying to make them do so will fail. Instead of warning and reporting the deauthentication to userspace, cfg80211 must simply ignore it so that spurious deauthentications, e.g. before starting authentication, aren't seen by userspace as actual deauthentications.
