Johannes Berg 103317670e wifi: cfg80211: hold wiphy mutex for send_interface
Given all the locking rework in mac80211, we pretty much
need to get into the driver with the wiphy mutex held in
all callbacks. This is already mostly the case, but as
Johan reported, in the get_txpower it may not be true.

Lock the wiphy mutex around nl80211_send_iface(), then
is also around callers of nl80211_notify_iface(). This
is easy to do, fixes the problem, and aligns the locking
between various calls to it in different parts of the
code of cfg80211.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
