Subject: [PATCH 3/5] mac80211: use station mutex in configuration
Date: Wed, 14 Dec 2011 12:20:29 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20111214112313.015117327@sipsolutions.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20111214112026.409514167@sipsolutions.net
From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
There's no need to use RCU here, we can just lock
the station mutex instead. This allows the code
to sleep, which is necessary for later patches.
