Non-MLO station frames are dropped in Rx path due to the condition
check in ieee80211_rx_is_valid_sta_link_id(). In multi-link AP scenario,
non-MLO stations try to connect in any of the valid links in the ML AP,
where the station valid_links and link_id params are valid in the
ieee80211_sta object. But ieee80211_rx_is_valid_sta_link_id() always
return false for the non-MLO stations by the assumption taken is
valid_links and link_id are not valid in non-MLO stations object
(ieee80211_sta), this assumption is wrong. Due to this assumption,
non-MLO station frames are dropped which leads to failure in association.
Fix it by removing the condition check and allow the link validation
check for the non-MLO stations.

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.
