[PATCH 2.6.39] mac80211: initialize sta->last_rx in sta_info_alloc

From: Felix Fietkau <hidden>
Date: 2011-03-21 19:01:09
Subsystem: mac80211, the rest · Maintainers: Johannes Berg, Linus Torvalds

This field is used to determine the inactivity time. When in AP mode,
hostapd uses it for kicking out inactive clients after a while. Without this
patch, hostapd immediately deauthenticates a new client if it checks the
inactivity time before the client sends its first data frame.
