[025/121] nl80211: fix mgmt tx status and testmode reporting fornetns

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Sat Sep 07 2013 - 23:30:24 EST


3.2.51-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Michal Kazior <michal.kazior@xxxxxxxxx>

commit a0ec570f4f69c4cb700d743a915096c2c8f56a99 upstream.

These two events were sent to the default network
namespace.

This caused AP mode in a non-default netns to not
work correctly. Mgmt tx status was multicasted to
a different (default) netns instead of the one the
AP was in.
