From: Colin Ian King colin.king@canonical.com
[ Upstream commit ac1181c60822292176ab96912208ec9f9819faf8 ]
Currently the less than zero error check on ret is incorrect as it is checking a far earlier ret assignment rather than the return from the call to wl1251_acx_arp_ip_filter. Fix this by adding in the missing assginment.
