+ mac80211: fix TID field in monitor mode transmit
+
+ Fix overwriting of the qos_ctrl.tid field for encrypted frames injected on
+ a monitor interface. While qos_ctrl.tid is not encrypted, it's used as an
+ input into the encryption algorithm so it's protected, and thus cannot be
+ modified after encryption. For injected frames, the encryption may already
+ have been done in userspace, so we cannot change any fields.
+
+ Before passing the frame to the driver, the qos_ctrl.tid field is updated
+ from skb->priority. Prior to dbd50a851c50 skb->priority was updated in
+ ieee80211_select_queue_80211(), but this function is no longer always
+ called.
+
+ Update skb->priority in ieee80211_monitor_start_xmit() so that the value
+ is stored, and when later code 'modifies' the TID it really sets it to
+ the same value as before, preserving the encryption.
+
+ Fixes: dbd50a851c50 ("mac80211: only allocate one queue when using iTXQs")
