[patch 19/23] mac80211: store channel info in sta_bss_list

From: Greg KH
Date: Thu Nov 15 2007 - 01:31:45 EST


-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: John W. Linville <linville@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

patch 65c107ab3befc37b21d1c970a6159525bc0121b8 in mainline.

Some AP equipment "in the wild" uses the same BSSID on multiple channels
(particularly "a" vs. "b/g"). This patch changes the key of sta_bss_list
to include both the BSSID and the channel so as to prevent a BSSID on
one channel from eclipsing the same BSSID on another channel.
