Subject: cfg80211: validate IBSS BSSID
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=39193498913f82dd7e484aa908843ca4114c3b0c;p=linux-beck.git

cfg80211: validate IBSS BSSID

The IBSS BSSID is never validated, so an
invalid one might end up being used. Fix
this by rejecting invalid configuration.
