Subject: mac80211: Improve mpath state locking
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f5e50cd0757cc97cd1caded0d3f07ff09b5319e4;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal7580.git

mac80211: Improve mpath state locking

No need to take the mpath state lock when an mpath is removed.
Also, no need checking the lock when reading mpath flags.
