Subject: [PATCH 3.18 16/16] mac80211/wpa: use constant time memory comparison for MACs

3.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jason A. Donenfeld <Jason@...c4.com>

commit 98c67d187db7808b1f3c95f2110dd4392d034182 upstream.

Otherwise, we enable all sorts of forgeries via timing attack.
