[ Upstream commit d873697ef2b7e1b6fdd8e9d449d9354bd5d29a4a ]
Commit 10cb8e617560 ("mac80211: enable QoS support for nl80211 ctrl port") changed ieee80211_tx_control_port() to aways call __ieee80211_select_queue() without checking local->hw.queues.
__ieee80211_select_queue() returns a queue-id between 0 and 3, which means that now ieee80211_tx_control_port() may end up setting the queue-mapping for a skb to a value higher then local->hw.queues if local->hw.queues is less then 4.
Specifically this is a problem for ralink rt2500-pci cards where local->hw.queues is 2. There this causes rt2x00queue_get_tx_queue() to return NULL and the following error to be logged: "ieee80211 phy0: rt2x00mac_tx: Error - Attempt to send packet over invalid queue 2", after which association with the AP fails.
Other callers of __ieee80211_select_queue() skip calling it when local->hw.queues < IEEE80211_NUM_ACS, add the same check to ieee80211_tx_control_port(). This fixes ralink rt2500-pci and similar cards when less then 4 tx-queues no longer working.
