From 5112fa502708aaaf80acb78273fc8625f221eb11 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Aditya Kumar Singh Date: Tue, 5 Sep 2023 12:18:57 +0530 Subject: wifi: cfg80211: validate AP phy operation before starting it Many regulatories can have HE/EHT Operation as not permitted. In such cases, AP should not be allowed to start if it is using a channel having the no operation flag set. However, currently there is no such check in place. Fix this issue by validating such IEs sent during start AP against the channel flags.
