[PATCH 4.14 070/156] mac80211: fix the update of path metric for RANN frame

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Feb 02 2018 - 12:18:27 EST


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

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

From: Chun-Yeow Yeoh <yeohchunyeow@xxxxxxxxx>


[ Upstream commit fbbdad5edf0bb59786a51b94a9d006bc8c2da9a2 ]

The previous path metric update from RANN frame has not considered
the own link metric toward the transmitting mesh STA. Fix this.
