Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
wifi: ath11k: fix sleeping-in-atomic in ath11k_mac_op_set_bitrate_mask()<br />
<br />
ath11k_mac_disable_peer_fixed_rate() is passed as the iterator to<br />
ieee80211_iterate_stations_atomic(). Note in this case the iterator is<br />
required to be atomic, however ath11k_mac_disable_peer_fixed_rate() does<br />
not follow it as it might sleep. Consequently below warning is seen:<br />
<br />
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at wmi.c:304<br />
Call Trace:<br />

ath11k_mac_disable_peer_fixed_rate<br />
ieee80211_iterate_stations_atomic<br />
ath11k_mac_op_set_bitrate_mask.cold<br />
<br />
Change to ieee80211_iterate_stations_mtx() to fix this issue.<br />
