Hi Johannes,
When the rx packet is skb_copy(), the hdr is not re-assign the new skb
value, and lead the
operation of "translate to MLD addresses" take effect on the original
skb, and lead
the check "if (!ether_addr_equal(ifmgd->auth_data->ap_addr,
mgmt->bssid))" fail in ieee80211_rx_mgmt_auth(),
and thus happened "authentication timed out".
After below change, issue not happen again.
