    mac80211: Fix signal strength average initialization for CQM events · 3ba06c6f

    The ave_beacon_signal value uses 1/16 dB unit and as such, must be
    initialized with the signal level of the first Beacon frame multiplied
    by 16. This fixes an issue where the initial CQM events are reported
    incorrectly with a burst of events while the running average
    approaches the correct value after the incorrect initialization. This
    could cause user space -based roaming decision process to get quite
    confused at the moment when we would like to go through authentication
    and DHCP.
