The below crash happens when running the traffic with multiple clients Crash Signature : Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ffffffd700970918 During the crash, PC points to "ieee80211_tx_rate_update+0x30/0x68 [mac80211]" LR points to "ath11k_dp_htt_htc_t2h_msg_handler+0x5a8/0x8a0 [ath11k]". ppdu_stats_info is allocated and accessed from event callback via copy engine tasklet, this has a problem when freeing it from ath11k_mac_op_stop. Add spin lock to protect htt_ppdu_stats_info and to avoid race condition when accessing it from ath11k_mac_op_stop.
