Merge tag 'mac80211-for-davem-2015-03-16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jberg/mac80211
Johannes Berg says: ==================== Here are a few fixes that I'd like to still get in: * disable U-APSD for better interoperability, from Michal Kazior * drop unencrypted frames in mesh forwarding, from Bob Copeland * treat non-QoS/WMM HT stations as non-HT, to fix confusion when they connect and then get QoS packets anyway due to HT * fix counting interfaces for combination checks, otherwise the interface combinations aren't properly enforced (from Andrei) * fix pure ECSA by reacting to the IE change * ignore erroneous (E)CSA to the current channel which sometimes happens due to AP/GO bugs ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

+ * Some APs experience problems when working with U-APSD. Decreasing the

+ *
+ * Cisco 4410N originally forced us to enable VO by default only because it
+ * treated non-VO ACs as legacy.
+ *
+ * However some APs (notably Netgear R7000) silently reclassify packets to
+ * different ACs. Since u-APSD ACs require trigger frames for frame retrieval
+ * clients would never see some frames (e.g. ARP responses) or would fetch them
+ * accidentally after a long time.
+ *
+ * It makes little sense to enable u-APSD queues by default because it needs
+ * userspace applications to be aware of it to actually take advantage of the
+ * possible additional powersavings. Implicitly depending on driver autotrigger
+ * frame support doesn't make much sense.
