From e19ebcab01cc130fa832764d453b263460ec3b91 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ilan Peer Date: Thu, 10 May 2012 15:53:14 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] iwlwifi: Check BSS ctx active before call mac80211 It is possible that the BSS context is not active (for example when the current mode is set to GO), or that the vif->type is different than station. In such a case we cannot call mac80211 to report the average rssi for the interface (the function assumes that the vif is valid and that the type is station).
