    iwlwifi: mvm: Allow multicast data frames only when associated · 50f56044
    Ilan Peer authored
    The MAC context configuration always allowed multicast data frames
    to pass to the driver for all MAC context types, and in the
    case of station MAC context both when associated and when not
    associated.
    
    One of the outcomes of this configuration is having the FW forward
    encrypted multicast frames to the driver with Rx status indicating
    that the frame was not decrypted (as expected, since no keys were
    configured yet) which in turn results with unnecessary error
    messages.
    
    Change this behavior to allow multicast data frames only when they
    are actually expected, e.g., station MAC context is associated etc.
