Hi,
Sorry for interrupting you.
The below patch do recovers from pn-key mismatch in kernel 3.12 kernel
packet drop issue.
I don't know where I need to submit this patch for proper solution.

Subject: Linux kernel 3.12 PN-KEY Mismatch in wpa.c, packet drop
To: linux-wireless@vger.kernel.org
Hi,
When I am sending heavy traffic through wireless, the packet number
and key is mismatching.
I have applied the below patch which solves my pn-key mismatch packet drop.
