Subject: mac80211: probe the AP when resuming
X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=46090979a55a0dc2cdb3d939f94fa47742108194;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git

mac80211: probe the AP when resuming

Check the connection by probing the AP (either using nullfunc or a
probe request). If nullfunc probing is supported and the assoc is no
longer valid, the AP will send a disassoc/deauth immediately.
