As the association status changes the driver needs to configure the hardware. This is done based on information in the "sta" acquired by ieee80211_find_sta(), which requires the caller to ensure that the "sta" is valid while its being used; generally by entering an rcu read section. But the operations acting on the "sta" has to communicate with the firmware and may therefor sleep, resulting in the following report: [ 31.418190] BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/mutex.c:238 [ 31.425919] in_atomic(): 0, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 34, name: kworker/u8:1 [ 31.434609] CPU: 0 PID: 34 Comm: kworker/u8:1 Tainted: G W 4.12.0-rc4-next-20170607+ #993 [ 31.441002] Hardware name: Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.

This is done by introducing a mutex to cover firmware configuration changes, which is made to also ensure mutual exclusion between other operations changing the state or configuration of the firmware. With this we can drop the rcu read lock.
