Subject: mac80211: fix mesh forwarding when ratelimited too
X-Git-Url: http://git.cdn.openwrt.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=919bbad580445801c22ef6ccbe624551fee652bd;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

mac80211: fix mesh forwarding when ratelimited too

Commit b51aff057c9d0ef6c529dc25fd9f775faf7b6c63 said:

    Under memory pressure, the mac80211 mesh code
    may helpfully print a message that it failed
    to clone a mesh frame and then will proceed
    to crash trying to use it anyway. Fix that.

Avoid the reference whenever the frame copy is unsuccessful
regardless of the debug message being suppressed or printed.
