Subject: [PATCH] wifi: mac80211: Don't finalize CSA in IBSS mode if state is disconnected
Git-commit: 15bc8966b6d3a5b9bfe4c9facfa02f2b69b1e5f0
Patch-mainline: v6.0-rc4
References: git-fixes
When we are not connected to a channel, sending channel "switch"
announcement doesn't make any sense.
The BSS list is empty in that case. This causes the for loop in
cfg80211_get_bss() to be bypassed, so the function returns NULL
(check line 1424 of net/wireless/scan.c), causing the WARN_ON()
in ieee80211_ibss_csa_beacon() to get triggered (check line 500
of net/mac80211/ibss.c), which was consequently reported on the
syzkaller dashboard.
Thus, check if we have an existing connection before generating
the CSA beacon in ieee80211_ibss_finish_csa().
