commit: 4668cce527acb3bd048c5e6c99b157a14b214671 From: Felix Fietkau <[email protected]> Date: Mon, 14 Jan 2013 16:56:46 +0100 Subject: ath9k: disable the tasklet before taking the PCU lock
Fixes a reported CPU soft lockup where the tasklet tries to acquire the lock and blocks while ath_prepare_reset (holding the lock) waits for it to complete.
