There is a deadlock in rtw_joinbss_event_prehandle(), which is shown
below:
(Thread 1) | (Thread 2)
| _set_timer()
rtw_joinbss_event_prehandle()| mod_timer()
spin_lock_bh() //(1) | (wait a time)
... | _rtw_join_timeout_handler()
del_timer_sync() | spin_lock_bh() //(2)
(wait timer to stop) | ...
We hold pmlmepriv->lock in position (1) of thread 1 and
use del_timer_sync() to wait timer to stop, but timer handler
also need pmlmepriv->lock in position (2) of thread 2.
As a result, rtw_joinbss_event_prehandle() will block forever.
This patch extracts del_timer_sync() from the protection of
spin_lock_bh(), which could let timer handler to obtain
the needed lock. What`s more, we change spin_lock_bh() to
spin_lock_irq() in _rtw_join_timeout_handler() in order to
prevent deadlock.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
