    mwl8k: prevent corruption of QoS field on receive · 20f09c3d
    Lennert Buytenhek 提交于
    Packets exchanged between the mwl8k driver and the firmware always
    have a 4-address header without QoS field.  For QoS packets, the QoS
    field is passed to/from the firmware via the tx/rx descriptors.
    
    We were handling this correctly on transmit, but not on receive -- if
    a QoS packet was received, we would leave garbage in the QoS field in
    the packet passed up to the stack, which is Bad(tm).
    
    Also, if the packet received on the air was a 4-address without QoS
    packet, we would forget to skb_pull the 2-byte DMA length prefix off.
    
    This patch adds an argument to the ->rxd_process() receive descriptor
    operation to retrieve the QoS field from the receive descriptor, and
    extends mwl8k_remove_dma_header() to insert this field back into the
    packet if the packet received is a QoS packet.  It also fixes
    mwl8k_remove_dma_header() to strip off the length prefix in all cases.
