    mac80211: check fast-xmit on station change · 464daaf0
    Michal Kazior authored
    Drivers with fast-xmit (e.g. ath10k) running in
    AP_VLAN setups would fail to communicate with
    connected 4addr stations.
    
    The reason was when new station associates it
    first goes into master AP interface. It is not
    until later that a dedicated AP_VLAN is created
    for it and the station itself is moved there.
    After that Tx directed at the station should use
    4addr header. However fast-xmit wasn't
    recalculated and 3addr header remained to be used.
    This in turn caused the connected 4addr stations
    to drop packets coming from the AP until some
    other event would cause fast-xmit to recalculate
    for that station (which could never come).
