+Subject: [PATCH] ath10k: Fix sending NULL/ Qos NULL data frames for
+ QCA99X0 and later
+
+For chipsets like QCA99X0, IPQ4019 and later we are not getting proper
+NULL func status (always acked/successs !!) when hostapd does a
+PROBE_CLIENT via nullfunc frames when the station is powered off
+abruptly (inactive timer probes client via null func after the inactive
+time reaches beyond the threshold). Fix this by disabling the workaround
+(getting the ACK status of NULL func frames by sending via HTT mgmt-tx
+ path) introduced by the change ("ath10k: fix beacon loss handling ")
+for QCA99X0 and later chipsets. The normal tx path provides the proper
+ACK status for NULL data frames. As of now disable this workaround for
+chipsets QCA99X0 and later, once the 10.1 firmware is obselete we can
+completely get rid of this workaround for all the chipsets
