Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: Ensure tid_start_tx is protected by sta->lock.
Date: Wed, 12 Jun 2013 14:08:44 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1371071324-12440-1-git-send-email-greearb@candelatech.com> (raw)
From: Ben Greear <greearb@candelatech.com>
All accesses of the tid_start_tx lock should be protected
by sta->lock if there is any chance that another thread
could still be accessing the sta object.
Signed-off-by: Ben Greear <greearb@candelatech.com>
