Subject: [PATCH] wifi: mac80211: Fix ack frame idr leak when mesh has no route
Date:   Thu, 27 Oct 2022 16:01:33 +0200
Message-Id: <20221027140133.1504-1-nicolas.cavallari@green-communications.fr>

When trying to transmit an data frame with tx_status to a destination
that have no route in the mesh, then it is dropped without recrediting
the ack_status_frames idr.

Once it is exhausted, wpa_supplicant starts failing to do SAE with
NL80211_CMD_FRAME and logs "nl80211: Frame command failed".

Use ieee80211_free_txskb() instead of kfree_skb() to fix it.
