mac80211: fix regression in sta connection monitor
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
When a frame was acked and probe frames were sent, the connection monitoring
needs to be reset, otherwise it will keep probing until the connection is
considered dead, even though frames have been acked in the mean time.
