3 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: do not call driver wake_tx_queue op during reconfig
4
5 There are several scenarios in which mac80211 can call drv_wake_tx_queue
6 after ieee80211_restart_hw has been called and has not yet completed.
7 Driver private structs are considered uninitialized until mac80211 has
8 uploaded the vifs, stations and keys again, so using private tx queue
9 data during that time is not safe.
10
11 The driver can also not rely on drv_reconfig_complete to figure out when
12 it is safe to accept drv_wake_tx_queue calls again, because it is only
13 called after all tx queues are woken again.
14
15 To fix this, bail out early in drv_wake_tx_queue if local->in_reconfig
16 is set.
