+Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: avoid kernel panic when building AMSDU from
+ non-linear SKB
+
+When building building AMSDU from non-linear SKB, we hit a
+kernel panic when trying to push the padding to the tail.
+Instead, put the padding at the head of the next subframe.
+This also fixes the A-MSDU subframes to not have the padding
+accounted in the length field and not have pad at all for
+the last subframe, both required by the spec.
+
+Fixes: 6e0456b54545 ("mac80211: add A-MSDU tx support")
