The ieee80211_accept_frame() function performs a number of early checks to decide whether or not further processing needs to be done on a frame. One of those checks is the ieee80211_is_robust_mgmt_frame() function. It requires to peek into the frame payload, but because defragmentation does not occur until later on in the receive path, this peek is invalid for any fragment other than the first one. Also, in this scenario there is no STA and so the fragmented frame will be dropped later on in the process and will not reach the upper stack. This can happen with large action frames at low rates, for example, we see issues with DPP on S1G. This change will only check if the frame is robust if it's the first fragment. Invalid fragmented packets will be discarded later after defragmentation is completed.

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.
