mac80211: properly deal with station hashtable insert errors
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The original hand-implemented hash-table in mac80211 couldn't result
in insertion errors, and while converting to rhashtable I evidently
forgot to check the errors.

This surfaced now only because Ben is adding many identical keys and
that resulted in hidden insertion errors.
