Subject: [PATCH] net:wireless:Add proper locking for the function, b43_op_beacon_set_tim in main.c
Date: Sun, 25 Jan 2015 02:06:14 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1422169574-8451-1-git-send-email-xerofoify@gmail.com> (raw)
Adds proper locking for the function, b43_op_beacon_set_tim in main.c that internally calls b43_update_templates.
Due to the function that is being called internally,b43_update_templates needing the mutex lock of the structure
pointer wl passed it to run successfully and without issues we add the calls to mutex_lock before and mutex_unlock
after it's call internally in b43_op_beacon_set_tim in order to allow the function,,b43_update_templates to run
successfully and without issues related to concurrent access.
