Subsystem: atheros ath generic utilities, atheros ath6kl wireless driver, the rest · Maintainers: Jeff Johnson, Linus Torvalds

From: Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan <redacted>

ath6kl_cfg80211_vif_cleanup calls 'unregister_netdevice' which
inturn calls 'unregister_netdevice_queue' and it requires holding
rtnl_lock semaphore protection.
