[PATCH] b43: Workaround circular locking in hw-tkip key update callback

2010-01-24 Thread Michael Buesch
The TKIP key update callback is called from the RX path, where the driver mutex is already locked. This results in a circular locking bug. Avoid this by removing the lock. Johannes noted that there is a separate bug: The callback still breaks on SDIO hardware, because SDIO hardware access needs

Is this a known problem?
