iwlwifi: mvm: avoid possible deadlock in TX path
iwl_mvm_tx_mpdu() may run from iwl_mvm_add_new_dqa_stream_wk(), where soft-IRQs aren't disabled. In this case, it may hold the station lock and be interrupted by a soft-IRQ that also wants to acquire said lock, leading to a deadlock. Fix it by disabling soft-IRQs in iwl_mvm_add_new_dqa_stream_wk(). Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Luca Coelho <luciano.coelho@intel.com>
