From 461cf036057477805a8a391e5fd0f5264a5e56a8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Carpenter Date: Fri, 19 Oct 2018 23:08:43 +0300 Subject: ath9k: Fix a locking bug in ath9k_add_interface() We tried to revert commit d9c52fd17cb4 ("ath9k: fix tx99 with monitor mode interface") but accidentally missed part of the locking change. The lock has to be held earlier so that we're holding it when we do "sc->tx99_vif = vif;" and also there in the current code there is a stray unlock before we have taken the lock.
