Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: Fix dropping broadcast packets in 802.11 encap
Git-commit: 78fb5b541b7ae57ac39187ccb3097e606004cf9b
Patch-mainline: v5.8-rc5
References: jsc#SLE-13430
Broadcast pkts like arp are getting dropped in 'ieee80211_8023_xmit'.
Fix this by replacing is_valid_ether_addr api with is_zero_ether_addr.
