From f99b751fca5b16bea53c0d6724935e1949350052 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Wed, 16 Jan 2008 21:47:40 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: fix RCU locking in __ieee80211_rx_handle_packet Commit c7a51bda ("mac80211: restructure __ieee80211_rx") extracted __ieee80211_rx_handle_packet out of __ieee80211_rx and hence changed the locking rules for __ieee80211_rx_handle_packet(), it is now invoked under RCU lock. There is, however, one instance left where it contains an rcu_read_unlock() in an error path, which is a bug. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W.
