commit: 243e6df4ed919880d079d717641ad699c6530a03 From: Johannes Berg <[email protected]> Date: Tue, 19 Apr 2011 20:44:04 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: fix SMPS debugfs locking
The locking with SMPS requests means that the debugs file should lock the mgd mutex, not the iflist mutex. Calls to __ieee80211_request_smps() need to hold that mutex, so add an assertion. This has always been wrong, but for some reason never been noticed, probably because the locking error only happens while unassociated.
