Subject: cfg80211: protect first access of last_request on 11d hint under mutex
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d335fe6391c2d86582cf71ef5773a161ee604608;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2FG12%2Fandroid_kernel_amlogic_linux-4.9.git

cfg80211: protect first access of last_request on 11d hint under mutex

We were not protecting last_request there is a small possible race
between an 11d hint and another routine which calls reset_regdomains()
which can prevent a valid country IE from being processed. This is
not critical as it will still be procesed soon after but locking prior
to it is correct.
