Subject[PATCH 4.2.y-ckt 69/70] mwifiex: fix corner case association failure
Date
4.2.8-ckt8 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

---8<------------------------------------------------------------

From: Amitkumar Karwar <akarwar@marvell.com>

commit a6139b6271f9f95377fe3486aed6120c9142779b upstream.

This patch corrects the error case in association path by returning
-1. Earlier "media_connected" used to remain on in this error case
causing failure for further association attempts.
