      mac80211: fix station entry leak/warning while suspending · b20d34c4
      Johannes Berg authored
      Since Stanislaw's patches, when suspending while connected,
      cfg80211 will disconnect. This causes the AP station to be
      removed, which uses call_rcu() to clean up. Due to needing
      process context, this queues a work struct on the mac80211
      workqueue. This will warn and fail when already suspended,
      which can happen if the rcu call doesn't happen quickly.
      
      To fix this, replace the synchronize_net() which is really
      just synchronize_rcu_expedited() with rcu_barrier(), which
      unlike synchronize_rcu() waits until RCU callback have run
      and thus avoids this issue.
      
      In theory, this can even happen without Stanislaw's change
      to disconnect on suspend since userspace might disconnect
      just before suspending, though then it's unlikely that the
      call_rcu() will be delayed long enough.
