From 6c9dcf2b7c7cc5d10cbe8141c957ec86ed75923c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Larry Finger Date: Wed, 16 Apr 2014 14:49:33 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] staging: r8712u: Fix case where ethtype was never obtained and always be checked against 0 commit f764cd68d9036498f08fe8834deb6a367b5c2542 upstream. Zero-initializing ether_type masked that the ether type would never be obtained for 8021x packets and the comparison against eapol_type would always fail.
