+Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: fix txq queue related crashes
+
+The driver can access the queue simultanously
+while mac80211 tears down the interface. Without
+spinlock protection this could lead to corrupting
+sk_buff_head and subsequently to an invalid
+pointer dereference.
+
+Fixes: ba8c3d6f16a1 ("mac80211: add an intermediate software queue implementation")
