Subject: [PATCH 4.19 078/116] mac80211: set IEEE80211_TX_CTRL_PORT_CTRL_PROTO for nl80211 TX

From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@...el.com>

[ Upstream commit b95d2ccd2ccb834394d50347d0e40dc38a954e4a ]

When a frame is transmitted via the nl80211 TX rather than as a
normal frame, IEEE80211_TX_CTRL_PORT_CTRL_PROTO wasn't set and
this will lead to wrong decisions (rate control etc.) being made
about the frame; fix this.
