mac80211: fix PS-poll response, race
When a station queries us for a PS-poll response, we wrongly queue the frame on the virtual interface's queue rather than the pending queue. Additionally, fix a race condition where we could potentially send multiple frames to the sleeping station due to using a station flag rather than a packet flag. When converting to a packet flag, we can also convert p54 and remove the filter clearing we added for it. (Also remove a now dead function) Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Reported-by: Bob Copeland <me@bobcopeland.com> Tested-by: Bob Copeland <me@bobcopeland.com> Cc: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@web.de> Signed-off-by: John W.
