[PATCH net] mac80211: fix locking in ieee80211_restart_work()

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

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

Ilan's change to move locking around accidentally lost the
wiphy_lock() during some porting, add it back.

Fixes: 45daaa131841 ("mac80211: Properly WARN on HW scan before restart")
Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

Can you please apply this directly to net? I don't have any
other patches, so not much sense in sending a pull request.
