We must not attempt to send WMI packets while holding the data-lock,
as it may deadlock:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/wmi.c:1824
in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 2878, name: wpa_supplicant
=============================================
[ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
4.4.6+ #21 Tainted: G W O
---------------------------------------------
wpa_supplicant/2878 is trying to acquire lock:
(&(&ar->data_lock)->rlock){+.-...}, at: [<ffffffffa0721511>] ath10k_wmi_tx_beacons_iter+0x26/0x11a [ath10k_core]
but task is already holding lock:
(&(&ar->data_lock)->rlock){+.-...}, at: [<ffffffffa070251b>] ath10k_peer_create+0x122/0x1ae [ath10k_core]
other info that might help us debug this:
Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0
----
lock(&(&ar->data_lock)->rlock);
lock(&(&ar->data_lock)->rlock);
*** DEADLOCK ***
May be due to missing lock nesting notation
4 locks held by wpa_supplicant/2878:
