From 6c7c4cbfd5f59c04a40af67ad72d14e19215ef36 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Pedersen Date: Thu, 20 Jun 2013 23:50:59 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: initialize power mode for mesh STAs Previously the default mesh STA nonpeer power mode was UNKNOWN (0) make the default mesh STA power mode ACTIVE, to prevent unnecessary frame buffering while peering is not yet complete. Fixes a panic in ath9k_htc when adding stations from userspace, and mcast buffered frames are later released. Thanks to Bob Copeland for his help debugging this.
