Subject: mac80211: respond to beacon loss report only once
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=34bfc411f63c8b0efb328b7574fc97bc1714cb29;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2FG12%2Fandroid_kernel_amlogic_linux-4.9.git

mac80211: respond to beacon loss report only once

The driver might keep reporting beacon loss until we
disassociate -- catch that and don't respond to any
subsequent events until the probe is either successful
or we disassociate.
