[PATCH v4] mac80211: allow rx of mesh eapol frames with default rx key

[PATCH v4] mac80211: allow rx of mesh eapol frames with default rx key

[Markus Theil]

Without this patch, eapol frames cannot be received in mesh
mode, when 802.1X should be used. Initially only a MGTK is
defined, which is found and set as rx->key, when there are
no other keys set. ieee80211_drop_unencrypted would then
drop these eapol frames, as they are data frames without
encryption and there exists some rx->key.

Fix this by differentiating between mesh eapol frames and
other data frames with existing rx->key. Allow mesh mesh
eapol frames only if they are for our vif address.

With this patch in-place, ieee80211_rx_h_mesh_fwding continues
after the ieee80211_drop_unencrypted check and notices, that
these eapol frames have to be delivered locally, as they should.

v4: reorganize checks for better performance (suggestions from Johannes Berg)
v3: continue with previous drop check, if eapol check fails
v2: fixes for rx path with packet sockets
