[PATCH] net: wireless: iwlegacy: Fix possible data races in il4965_send_rxon_assoc()

[Jia-Ju Bai <baijiaju1990@xxxxxxxxx>]

CPU0:
il4965_configure_filter
	mutex_lock()
	line 6183: il->staging.filter_flags &= ... [WRITE]
	line 6184: il->staging.filter_flags |= ... [WRITE]

CPU1:
il4965_send_rxon_assoc
	line 1301: rxon1->filter_flags, rxon1->filter_flags [READ]
	line 1314: il->staging.filter_flags [READ]

The WRITE operations in CPU0 are performed with holding a mutex lock, 
but the READ operations in CPU1 are performed without holding this lock, 
so there may exist data races. 

These possible races are detected by a runtime testing. 
To fix these races, the mutex lock is used in il4965_send_rxon_assoc() 
to protect the data.
