Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: Assign next hop address to pending mesh frames
Assign next hop address to pending mesh frames once the path is resolved.
Regression. Frames transmitted when a mesh path was wating to be resolved were
being transmitted with an invalid Receiver Address.
[Changes since v1]
Suggested by Johannes:
- Improved frame_queue traversal
- Narower RCU scope
