Matthew LeachandGreg Kroah-Hartman fcb479e55b wifi: ath11k: fix peer resolution on rx path when peer_id=0
[ Upstream commit 2a2451a34a ]

It has been observed that on certain chipsets a peer can be assigned
peer_id=0. For reception of non-aggregated MPDUs this is fine as
ath11k_dp_rx_h_find_peer() has a fallback case where it locates the peer
based upon the source MAC address. On an aggregated link, the mpdu_start
header is only populated by hardware on the first sub-MSDU. This causes
the peer resolution to be skipped for the subsequent MSDUs and the
encryption type of these frames to be set to an incorrect value,
resulting in these MSDUs being dropped by ieee80211.

Remove the null peer_id checks in ath11k_dp_rx_h_find_peer() and
ath11k_hal_rx_parse_mon_status_tlv(), allowing peers with an assigned ID
of 0 to be resolved.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
