   4 Subject: [PATCH] nl80211: Ignore 4addr mode enabling error if it was already
   5  enabled
   6
   7 nl80211_set_4addr_mode() could fail when trying to enable 4addr mode on
   8 an interface that is in a bridge and has 4addr mode already enabled.
   9 This operation would not have been necessary in the first place and this
  10 failure results in disconnecting, e.g., when roaming from one backhaul
  11 BSS to another BSS with Multi AP.
  12
  13 Avoid this issue by ignoring the nl80211 command failure in the case
  14 where 4addr mode is being enabled while it has already been enabled.
