Subject: [PATCH] wifi: mac80211: fix receiving mesh packets in forwarding=0
 networks
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

When forwarding is set to 0, frames are typically sent with ttl=1.
Move the ttl decrement check below the check for local receive in order to
fix packet drops.
