nl80211: Disallow setting of HT for channel 14
This patch disables setting of HT20 and more for channel 14 because the channel is only for IEEE 802.11b. The patch for net/wireless/util.c was unit-tested. The patch for net/wireless/chan.c was tested with iw command. Before this patch. $ sudo iw dev <ifname> set channel 14 HT20 $ After this patch. $ sudo iw dev <ifname> set channel 14 HT20 kernel reports: invalid channel definition command failed: Invalid argument (-22) $ Signed-off-by: Masashi Honma <masashi.honma@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20191021075045.2719-1-masashi.honma@gmail.com [clean up the code, use != instead of equivalent >] Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
