From 91ec61f8f01cf32868e2ed2fa96a299e77964055 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Malcolm Priestley Date: Wed, 15 May 2013 01:44:25 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] staging: vt6656: [bug] Fix missing spin lock in iwctl_siwpower. Fixes occasional dead lock on power up / down. spin_lock_irq is used because of unlocking with spin_unlock_irq elsewhere in the driver. Only relevant to kernels 3.8 and later when command was transferred to the iw_handler.
