From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
All callers of ath9k_beacon_ensure_primary_slot() are preemptible /
acquire a mutex except for this callchain:
spin_lock_bh(&sc->sc_pcu_lock);
ath_complete_reset()
-> ath9k_calculate_summary_state()
-> ath9k_beacon_ensure_primary_slot()
It's unclear how that can be distangled, so use tasklet_disable_in_atomic()
for now. This allows tasklet_disable() to become sleepable once the
remaining atomic users are cleaned up.
