From 8b305780ed0c49a49c6bd58a4372fd6b22a5a71e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Wed, 20 Mar 2013 22:25:17 +0100 Subject: mac80211: fix virtual monitor interface locking The virtual monitor interface has a locking issue, it calls into the channel context code with the iflist mutex held which isn't allowed since it is usually acquired the other way around. The mutex is still required for the interface iteration, but need not be held across the channel calls.

The reason appears to be that it wants to go out of idle before switching channels. To fix it, reimplement that sequence.
