staging: wfx: fix the warning "inconsistent notification"
In some circumstances, Tx traffic is sent without associated station but the station exists when the Tx status is received. Beside that, the driver keep a counter associated to each station. So, in this case, the counter is not incremented, but is decremented. In this case a warning "inconsistent notification" appears: ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 82 at /home/jerome/wfx/data_tx.c:469 wfx_skb_dtor+0x1a4/0x1d4 [wfx] inconsistent notification Modules linked in: [...] CPU: 3 PID: 82 Comm: kworker/3:1H Tainted: G C O 4.19.57-v7l+ #1244 Hardware name: BCM2835 Workqueue: events_highpri bh_work [wfx] [<c0212c8c>] (unwind_backtrace) from [<c020d49c>] (show_stack+0x20/0x24) [<c020d49c>] (show_stack) from [<c0976220>] (dump_stack+0xd4/0x118) [<c0976220>] (dump_stack) from [<c0222270>] (__warn+0x104/0x11c) [<c0222270>] (__warn) from [<c02222e0>] (warn_slowpath_fmt+0x58/0x74) [<c02222e0>] (warn_slowpath_fmt) from [<bf497b48>] (wfx_skb_dtor+0x1a4/0x1d4 [wfx]) [<bf497b48>] (wfx_skb_dtor [wfx]) from [<bf4988b4>] (wfx_tx_confirm_cb+0x198/0x2f0 [wfx]) [<bf4988b4>] (wfx_tx_confirm_cb [wfx]) from [<bf49d054>] (hif_tx_confirm+0x50/0x70 [wfx]) [<bf49d054>] (hif_tx_confirm [wfx]) from [<bf49d42c>] (wfx_handle_rx+0x128/0x22c [wfx]) [<bf49d42c>] (wfx_handle_rx [wfx]) from [<bf4953cc>] (bh_work+0x3cc/0x964 [wfx]) [<bf4953cc>] (bh_work [wfx]) from [<c023dab8>] (process_one_work+0x170/0x458) [<c023dab8>] (process_one_work) from [<c023ddfc>] (worker_thread+0x5c/0x5a4) [<c023ddfc>] (worker_thread) from [<c02440e8>] (kthread+0x138/0x168) [<c02440e8>] (kthread) from [<c02010ac>] (ret_from_fork+0x14/0x28) Exception stack(0xee199fb0 to 0xee199ff8) 9fa0: 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 9fc0: 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 9fe0: 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000013 00000000 ---[ end trace 64b9e754e12ef7de ]--- This patch fix this race between the station creation and the Tx data.
