Subject: mac80211: fix idle handling in monitor mode
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b759f4ddcafb6414056cf3e49f2ab12359101c2e;p=linux-beck.git

mac80211: fix idle handling in monitor mode

When the driver does not want a monitor mode VIF, no channel context is
allocated for it. This causes ieee80211_recalc_idle to put the hardware
into idle mode if only a monitor mode is active, breaking injection.

Fix this by checking local->monitors in addition to active channel
contexts.
