-Subject: [PATCH] ath9k: Do not start BA when scanning
-
-mac80211 currently has a race which can be hit
-with this sequence:
-
-* Start a scan operation.
-* TX BA is initiated by ieee80211_start_tx_ba_session().
-* Driver sets up internal state and calls
-  ieee80211_start_tx_ba_cb_irqsafe().
-* mac80211 adds a packet to sdata->skb_queue with
-  type IEEE80211_SDATA_QUEUE_AGG_START.
-* ieee80211_iface_work() doesn't process the
-  packet because scan is in progress.
-* ADDBA response timer expires and the sta/tid is
-  torn down.
-* Driver receives BA stop notification and calls
-  ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_cb_irqsafe().
-* This is also added to the queue by mac80211.
-* Now, scan finishes.
-
-At this point, the queued up packets might be processed
-if some other operation schedules the sdata work. Since
-the tids have been cleaned up already, warnings are hit.
-
-If this doesn't happen, the packets are left in the queue
-until the interface is torn down.
-
-Since initiating a BA session when scan is in progress
-leads to flaky connections, especially in MCC mode, we
-can drop the TX BA request. This improves connectivity
-with legacy clients in MCC mode.
