[PATCH] mac80211: fix authentication with iwlwifi/mvm

From: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net>
Date: 2020-03-29 19:31:41
Also in: linux-wireless, stable
Subsystem: mac80211, the rest · Maintainers: Johannes Berg, Linus Torvalds

From: Johannes Berg <redacted>

The original patch didn't copy the ieee80211_is_data() condition
because on most drivers the management frames don't go through
this path. However, they do on iwlwifi/mvm, so we do need to keep
the condition here.

Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
Fixes: ce2e1ca70307 ("mac80211: Check port authorization in the ieee80211_tx_dequeue() case")
