    ath10k: switch to ieee80211_tx_dequeue_ni · 30654760
    Erik Stromdahl authored
    Since ath10k_mac_tx_push_txq() can be called from process context, we
    must explicitly disable softirqs before the call into mac80211.
    
    By calling ieee80211_tx_dequeue_ni() instead of ieee80211_tx_dequeue()
    we make sure softirqs are always disabled even in the case when
    ath10k_mac_tx_push_txq() is called from process context.
    
    Calling ieee80211_tx_dequeue_ni() with softirq's already disabled
    (e.g., from softirq context) should be safe as the local_bh_disable()
    and local_bh_enable() functions (called from ieee80211_tx_dequeue_ni)
    are fully reentrant.
