lockdep complains use of uninitialized spinlock at ieee80211_do_stop() [1],
for commit f856373e2f31ffd3 ("wifi: mac80211: do not wake queues on a vif
that is being stopped") guards clear_bit() using fq.lock even before
fq_init() from ieee80211_txq_setup_flows() initializes this spinlock.

According to discussion [2], Toke was not happy with expanding usage of
fq.lock. Since __ieee80211_wake_txqs() is called under RCU read lock, we
can instead use synchronize_rcu() for flushing ieee80211_wake_txqs().

Changes in v2:
  Use synchronize_rcu() instead of initializing fq.lock early.

This bug is current top crasher for syzbot. Please fix as soon as possible.

Ah, that's a neat solution! :)

Patch applied to wireless-next.git, thanks.

Since this patch fixes a regression introduced in 5.19-rc7, can this patch go to 5.19-final ?

syzbot is failing to test linux.git for 12 days due to this regression.
syzbot will fail to bisect new bugs found in the upcoming merge window
if unable to test v5.19 due to this regression.

I took this to wireless-next as I didn't think there's enough time to
get this to v5.19 (and I only heard Linus' -rc8 plans after the fact).
So this will be in v5.20-rc1 and I recommend pushing this to a v5.19
stable release.

Would it be worth reverting the patch that broke things until the first stable 5.19.x
tree then?  Seems lame to ship an official kernel with a known bug like this.

Thanks,
Ben

I cherry-picked the fix across the trees after talking to Kalle and
DaveM. Let's see how that goes...

This patch successfully arrived at linux.git, in time for 5.19-final.

Thank you.
