[PATCH 2/2] mac80211: fix nested rtnl locking on ieee80211_reconfig

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

 



ieee80211_reconfig already holds rtnl, so calling
cfg80211_sched_scan_stopped results in deadlock.

Use the rtnl-version of this function instead.

Fixes: d43c6b6 ("mac80211: reschedule sched scan after HW restart")
