Subject: rt2x00: Fix for race condition while update beacon
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=17512dc3b7fc9ff1a60d3748ce87c323df507c3d;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

rt2x00: Fix for race condition while update beacon

The patch "Implement set_tim callback for all drivers" can cause kernel
oops in rt73usb_write_beacon. The oops is caused by one of the following
race conditions:
* In case of two near calls to set_tim: rt2x00lib_beacondone_iter is
cleaning the beacon skb, whereas rt73usb_write_beacon is still using it.
* In case of two near updates of beacon: first as the result of set_tim
and second as the result of a call from an application (e.g. hostapd).
This patch fixes the race condition by rearranging the update logic and
guarding rt2x00_intf->beacon->skb with a mutex.
