Subject: [PATCH] ath9k: unlock rcu read when returning early
Starting with ath9k: use ieee80211_tx_status_noskb where possible
[d94a461d7a7df68991fb9663531173f60ef89c68] the driver uses rcu_read_lock() &&
rcu_read_unlock() yet on returning early in ath_tx_edma_tasklet() the unlock is
missing leading to stalls and suspicious RCU usage:
===============================
[ INFO: suspicious RCU usage. ]
4.9.0-rc8 #11 Not tainted
-------------------------------
kernel/rcu/tree.c:705 Illegal idle entry in RCU read-side critical section.!
other info that might help us debug this:
RCU used illegally from idle CPU!
rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 0
RCU used illegally from extended quiescent state!
1 lock held by swapper/7/0:
#0:
(
rcu_read_lock
){......}
