Subsystem: 802.11 (including cfg80211/nl80211), the rest · Maintainers: Johannes Berg, Linus Torvalds

From: Ilan Peer <redacted>

[ Upstream commit 05dcb8bb258575a8dd3499d0d78bd2db633c2b23 ]

When cfg80211_update_assoc_bss_entry() is called, there is a
verification that the BSS channel actually changed. As some APs use
CSA also for bandwidth changes, this would result with a kernel
warning.

Fix this by removing the WARN_ON().
