mac80211: fix wiphy supported_band access
Fix wiphy supported_band access in tx radiotap parsing introduced in commit 5ec3aed9ba4c ("mac80211: Parse legacy and HT rate in injected frames"). In particular, info->band is always set to 0 (IEEE80211_BAND_2GHZ) since it has not assigned yet. This cause a kernel crash on 5GHz only devices. Move ieee80211_parse_tx_radiotap() after info->band assignment Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Bianconi <lorenzo.bianconi83@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
