Subject: mac80211: don't transmit 40MHz frames to 20MHz peer
X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c7d258288f2ad11eaa9656f6f9f48272a102fd1b;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git

mac80211: don't transmit 40MHz frames to 20MHz peer

If a mesh peer indicates it is operating as 20MHz-only in its HT
operation IE, have the rate control algorithm respect this by disabling
the equivalent bit in the ieee80211_sta HT capabilities.
