From 870588b6ebd8d818f65e5784bc866a8d67de0a31 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Bauer Date: Thu, 25 Jun 2020 02:36:19 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: ath9k: enable MFP capability unconditionally ath9k will already fallback on software-crypto for chipsets not supporting IEEE802.11w (MFP). So advertising MFP is not dependent on disabling HW crypto for all traffic entirely.
