Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: don't WARN on bad WMM parameters from buggy APs
Apparently, some APs are buggy enough to send a zeroed
WMM IE. Don't WARN on this since this is not caused by a bug
on the client's system.
This aligns the condition of the WARNING in drv_conf_tx
with the validity check in ieee80211_sta_wmm_params.
We will now pick the default values whenever we get
a zeroed WMM IE.
This has been reported here:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=199161
Fixes: f409079bb678 ("mac80211: sanity check CW_min/CW_max towards driver")
