From 20f544eea03db4b498942558b882d463ce575c3e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Thu, 8 Nov 2012 14:06:28 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: don't send null data packet when not associated On resume or firmware recovery, mac80211 sends a null data packet to see if the AP is still around and hasn't disconnected us. However, it always does this even if it wasn't even connected before, leading to a warning in the new channel context code. Fix this by checking that it's associated.
