[PATCH] staging: r8188eu: scheduling in atomic in rtw_createbss_cmd()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



A couple of the callers are holding spinlocks so this allocation has to
be atomic.  One spinlock is in rtw_set_802_11_connect() but the simpler
spinlock to review is when this function is called from
rtw_surveydone_event_callback().
