If you are going to handle messages in IRQ context, that better be a spin_lock_irq() or spin_lock_bh().

This function is executed in IRQ context after the next patch, as such I
use spin_lock() here and spin_lock_irqsave() in the worker thread
(wcn36xx_ind_smd_work()).

Is this not how the spin_lock API should be used?

Regards,
Bjorn
