From 538181a879368f54544b91e414ea56a88008782b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexander Aring Date: Tue, 28 Oct 2014 18:21:27 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] mac802154: add synchronization handling This patch adds synchronization handling in start and stop driver ops calls. This patch is mostly grab from mac80211 which was introduced by commit ea77f12f2cc0f31168f2e0259e65a22202ac4dc2 ("mac80211: remove tasklet enable/disable"). This is to be sure that we don't run into same issues.
