[PATCH 2/5] iwlwifi: mvm: fix RCU splat in TKIP's update_key

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

 



From: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@xxxxxxxxx>

The commit below mistakenly changed an rcu_dereference_check
to a rcu_dereference_protected which introduced the
following RCU warning:

[ INFO: suspicious RCU usage. ]
