Subject: [RFC v2 12/22] mac80211: remove non-irqsafe aggregation callbacks
Date: Wed, 09 Jun 2010 17:01:54 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100609150455.233186760@sipsolutions.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20100609150142.227469359@sipsolutions.net
From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
The non-irqsafe aggregation start/stop done
callbacks are currently only used by ath9k_htc,
and can cause callbacks into the driver again.
This might lead to locking issues, which will
only get worse as we modify locking. To avoid
trouble, remove the non-irqsafe versions and
change ath9k_htc to use those instead.
Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
