If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Johannes Berg [ Upstream commit b481e64e4498e2c053d5954f546ee02338f6ab63 ] In the error path of ieee80211_mesh_csa_beacon() the settings that were just assigned are read back with rcu_dereference(), which lockdep then complains about. There's no need to read the pointer at all, tmp_csa_settings still is the right value anyway.
