+Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: fix PS-Poll handling
+
+My commit below broken PS-Poll handling. In case the driver
+has no frames buffered, driver_release_tids will be 0, but
+calling find_highest_prio_tid() with 0 as a parameter is
+not a good idea:
+fls(0) - 1 = -1.
+This bug caused mac80211 to think that frames were buffered
+in the driver which in turn was confused because mac80211
+was asking to release frames that were not reported to
+exist.
+On iwlwifi, this led to the WARNING below:
+
