This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled wifi: cfg80211: fix locking in regulatory disconnect to the 6.3-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: wifi-cfg80211-fix-locking-in-regulatory-disconnect.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.3 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 2bfe8165ee81b54f0868f62da04242111d2f0ad6 Author: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Jun 6 14:34:48 2023 +0200 wifi: cfg80211: fix locking in regulatory disconnect [ Upstream commit f7e60032c6618dfd643c7210d5cba2789e2de2e2 ] This should use wiphy_lock() now instead of requiring the RTNL, since __cfg80211_leave() via cfg80211_leave() is now requiring that lock to be held.
