Hi,

Yeah, I know this is old ... still happening though, so I've been
looking at it a bit.

I'm not sure that make sense, FWIW. There isn't even any OCB? The syz
script just contains a channel switch command.

I also can't reproduce this though.

Is there a chance that somehow there's some scheduling problem and
workers aren't being scheduled, and then ieee80211_csa_finalize_work()
doesn't work between the last pre-CSA and first post-CSA beacon?

I _can_ reproduce this if I just make ieee80211_csa_finalize_work() do
nothing instead of doing what it should, hence the question.
