[lvc-project] [PATCH] wifi: zd1211rw: Fix potential data race in zd_mac_tx_to_dev()

[Johannes Berg]

Hi,

So ... I have no idea why you're CC'ing all kinds of people who never
had anything to do with this driver, or haven't worked on WiFi in like a
decade or so ... Please don't. Even I should've been CC'ed with a
different address, at most.

I also have no idea who's maintaining this driver now though, if anyone.
I have hardware if someone wants it ;-)

You should explain why the locking changes are OK.
