Subject: [PATCH 3.15] mwifiex: process event before command response
Date: Mon, 14 Apr 2014 15:31:05 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1397514666-4656-1-git-send-email-bzhao@marvell.com> (raw)

From: Amitkumar Karwar <akarwar@marvell.com>

During extended scan, SCAN report event is always followed by
command response. Sometimes It is observed that command response
is processed before SCAN report which leads to a crash, because
current command node is cleared while handling the response.
This patch makes sure that driver's main thread gives priority
to events over command responses.
