From 710e4d08f2ab6eed7950884ab30e684704e325ca Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Emmanuel Grumbach Date: Thu, 28 Nov 2013 15:25:21 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] iwlwifi: mvm: don't send SMPS action frame with single RX antenna Products that have only 1 antenna in Rx don't support MIMO in RX. As a consequence, they will be in STATIC always. Don't tell mac80211 to update SMPS in that case. mac80211 would send an action frame to the AP which is clearly bogus. As a matter of fact, we have seen that some APs send a deauth when that happens.
