From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx> Initially in this code, the race didn't matter since it didn't do anything. Latest with the commit I marked this as fixing it started to matter as something got done here that needed other data that got freed as soon as the queue notification wait was returning. In the scenario we saw, apparently the IWL_MVM_RXQ_NOTIF_DEL_BA event was sent to all queues, but processing the last event we returned from iwl_mvm_sync_rx_queues_internal() and then from iwl_mvm_free_reorder() and continued some processing before wl_mvm_del_ba() was even invoked on the other CPU. Thus, when the latter finally ran, it found that mvm->baid_map[baid] was no longer valid. Correct the race by moving the counter decrement and wake_up() to be done only after all the per-event processing completed. Note that in the commit I marked as being fixed the wake_up() didn't exist yet (and the code was otherwise problematic) but this particular problem already existed in a way.
