From a29517ce40e128bdf0794110bb4b18a984da7fb7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan Date: Fri, 4 Nov 2011 15:48:51 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] ath6kl: Fix tx packet drop in AP mode with bridge skb is dropped in ath6kl_data_tx() when the headroom in skb is insufficient. We hit this condition for every skb in AP mode which is used with bridge, so all tx packets are getting dropped when tried to send traffic to wireless client from bridge. Fix this by reallocating the headroom instead of dropping the skb when it has lesser headroom than needed.
