commit a7c0f48410f546772ac94a0f7b7291a15c4fc173 upstream. Some (all?) management frames are incorrectly reported to mac80211 as decrypted when actually the hardware did not decrypt them. This results in speeds 3-5 times lower than expected, 20-30 Mbps instead of 100 Mbps. Fix this by checking the encryption type field of the RX descriptor. rtw88 does the same thing. This fix was tested only with rtl8192du, which will use the same code.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
