[PATCH 5.15 081/177] cfg80211: Acquire wiphy mutex on regulatory work

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Dec 20 2021 - 10:11:23 EST


From: Ilan Peer <ilan.peer@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit e08ebd6d7b90ae81f21425ca39136f5b2272580f ]

The function cfg80211_reg_can_beacon_relax() expects wiphy
mutex to be held when it is being called. However, when
reg_leave_invalid_chans() is called the mutex is not held.
Fix it by acquiring the lock before calling the function.

Fixes: a05829a7222e ("cfg80211: avoid holding the RTNL when calling the driver")
