Johannes Berg 79010420cc [PATCH] mac80211: fix virtual interface locking ... Florian Lohoff noticed a bug in mac80211: when bringing the master interface down while other virtual interfaces are up we call dev_close() under a spinlock which is not allowed. This patch removes the sub_if_lock used by mac80211 in favour of using an RCU list. All list manipulations are already done under rtnl so are well protected against each other, and the read-side locks we took in the RX and TX code are already in RCU read-side critical sections.
