From: Johannes Berg Date: Mon, 5 Mar 2012 19:24:21 +0000 (-0800) Subject: iwlwifi: reduce sta_lock hold time in TX X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=71cb99241d63b26a41c9cce6ed441bc30f90224a;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git iwlwifi: reduce sta_lock hold time in TX When we TX, we hold the sta_lock for a long time, a lot of which isn't needed. Reduce the time we hold the lock. Note that this doesn't really change anything as the code is already under the other spinlock, but it makes the code easier to read.
