So I'm afraid that I have some bad news about this patch, it fixes
the RCU warning which I reported:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-wireless/20210104170713.66956-1-hdegoede@redhat.com/ (local)

But it introduces a deadlock. See:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-wireless/d839ab62-e4bc-56f0-d861-f172bf19c4b3@redhat.com/ (local)

for details. Note we really should fix this new deadlock before 5.11
is released. This is worse then the RCU warning which this patch fixes.
Ouch. Thanks for the heads-up. I guess I'll revert both patches for now,
unless we can quickly figure out a way to get all these paths in order.

Thanks,
johannes
