Subject: wifi: mac80211: mark iface work SKBs as consumed
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1e1dd9eeaab3908746d1dce5db6b0c29e0d28d6d;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Flinux.git

wifi: mac80211: mark iface work SKBs as consumed

Using kfree_skb() here is misleading when looking at
traces, since these frames have been handled. Use
consume_skb() instead.
