Commit Message

rtw_update_sta_info() internally access some registers while being
called unter an atomic lock acquired by rtw_iterate_vifs_atomic(). Move
rtw_update_sta_info() call out of (rtw_ra_mask_info_update_iter) in
preparation for SDIO support where register access may sleep.

v1 -> v2:
- this patch is new in v2
- keep rtw_iterate_vifs_atomic() to prevent deadlocks as Johannes
  suggested. Keep track of all relevant stations inside
  rtw_ra_mask_info_update_iter() and the iter-data and then call
  rtw_update_sta_info() while held under rtwdev->mutex instead

I think this lock is used to protect br_data.si[i], right?

And, I prefer to move mutex lock to caller, like:

Correct, I chose this lock because it's also used in
rtw_ops_sta_remove() and rtw_ops_sta_add() (which could modify the
data in br_data.si[i]).

Thank you for this hint - if I do it like you suggest then the locking
will be consistent with other functions.
I'll send a v3 with this fixed.


Best regards,
