| Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: fix fast_tx header alignment
 | |
| 
 | |
| The header field is defined as u8[] but also accessed as struct
 | |
| ieee80211_hdr. Enforce an alignment of 2 to prevent unnecessary
 | |
| unaligned accesses, which can be very harmful for performance on many
 | |
| platforms.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Fixes: e495c24731a2 ("mac80211: extend fast-xmit for more ciphers")
