      cfg80211: avoid holding the RTNL when calling the driver · a05829a7
      Johannes Berg authored
      Currently, _everything_ in cfg80211 holds the RTNL, and if you
      have a slow USB device (or a few) you can get some bad lock
      contention on that.
      
      Fix that by re-adding a mutex to each wiphy/rdev as we had at
      some point, so we have locking for the wireless_dev lists and
      all the other things in there, and also so that drivers still
      don't have to worry too much about it (they still won't get
      parallel calls for a single device).
      
      Then, we can restrict the RTNL to a few cases where we add or
      remove interfaces and really need the added protection. Some
      of the global list management still also uses the RTNL, since
      we need to have it anyway for netdev management, but we only
      hold the RTNL for very short periods of time here.
