3.6.11.7-rc1 stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Christian Lamparter [ Upstream commit 5f34608fa2acbfef5a06d0072a978c9943c28a2d ] With "mac80211/minstrel_ht: add support for using CCK rates" minstrel_ht selects legacy CCK rates as viable rates for outgoing frames which might be sent as part of an A-MPDU [IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU is set]. This behavior triggered the following WARN_ON in the driver: > WARNING: at carl9170/tx.c:995 carl9170_op_tx+0x1dd/0x6fd The driver assumed that the rate control algorithm made a mistake and dropped the frame. This patch removes the noisy warning altogether and allows said A-MPDU frames with CCK sample and/or fallback rates to be transmitted seamlessly.
