[PATCH 5.4 20/51] cfg80211: scan: fix RCU in cfg80211_add_nontrans_list()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Nov 01 2021 - 05:31:56 EST


From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

commit a2083eeb119fb9307258baea9b7c243ca9a2e0b6 upstream.

The SSID pointer is pointing to RCU protected data, so we
need to have it under rcu_read_lock() for the entire use.
Fix this.
