3.13.11.3 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Helmut Schaa <[email protected]> commit 5998be879719384af2014b79697eed6e38ee2706 upstream. Since commit 558ff225de80ac95b132d3a115ddadcd64498b4f (ath9k: fix ps-poll responses under a-mpdu sessions) non-data frames would have gotten a sequence number from a TIDs sequence counter instead of using the global sequence counter. This can lead to instable connections. To fix this only select the correct TID if we are processing a data frame. Furthermore, prevent non-data frames to get a sequence number from a TID sequence counter by adding a check to ath_tx_setup_buffer.
