ath9k_htc: fix random decryption failure
In v3.15 the driver stopped to accept network packets after successful authentification, which could be worked around by passing the nohwcrypt=1 module parameter. This was not reproducible by everyone, and showed random behaviour in some tests. It was caused by an uninitialized variable introduced in 4ed1a8d4a257 ("ath9k_htc: use ath9k_cmn_rx_accept") and used in 341b29b9cd2f ("ath9k_htc: use ath9k_cmn_rx_skb_postprocess"). Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=78581 Fixes: 341b29b9cd2f ("ath9k_htc: use ath9k_cmn_rx_skb_postprocess") Signed-off-by: Johannes Stezenbach <js@sig21.net> Signed-off-by: John W.
