Subject[PATCH 0/4] rtw88: Four fixes found while working on SDIO support
Date
This series consists of three patches which are fixing existing
behavior (meaning: it either affects PCIe or USB or both) in the rtw88
driver.

The first change adds the packed attribute to the eFuse structs. This
was spotted by Ping-Ke while reviewing the SDIO support patches from
[0].

The remaining three changes relate to locking (barrier hold) problems.
We previously had discussed patches for this for SDIO support, but the
problem never ocurred while testing USB cards. It turns out that these
are still needed and I think that they also fix the same problems for
USB users (it's not clear how often it happens there though).

The issue fixed by the second and third patches have been spotted by a
user who tested rtw88 SDIO support. Everything is working fine for him
but there are warnings [1] and [2] in the kernel log stating "Voluntary
context switch within RCU read-side critical section!".

The solution in the third and fourth patch was actually suggested by
Ping-Ke in [3]. Thanks again!

Martin Blumenstingl (4):
rtw88: Add packed attribute to the eFuse structs
rtw88: Configure the registers from rtw_bf_assoc() outside the RCU
lock
rtw88: Use rtw_iterate_vifs() for rtw_vif_watch_dog_iter()
rtw88: Use non-atomic rtw_iterate_stas() in rtw_ra_mask_info_update()
