cfg80211: merge in beacon ies of hidden bss.
The problem with PSM when a hidden SSID was used was originally reported by Juuso Oikarinen. - When generally scanning, the AP is getting a bss entry with a zero SSID. - When associating, a probe-req is sent to the AP with the SSID, and as a result a probe-response is received with the hidden SSID in place. As a consequence, a second bss entry is created for the AP, now with the real SSID. - After association, mac80211 executes ieee80211_recalc_ps(), but does not switch to powersave because the beacon-ies are missing. As result, the STA does not ever enter PSM. The patch merges in beacon ies of hidden bss from beacon to the probe response, creating a consistent set of ies in place. Patch is depended on "cfg80211: fix cmp_ies" made by Johannes. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Tarnyagin <dmitry.tarnyagin@stericsson.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
