It is not allowed to call kfree_skb() from hardware interrupt
context or with interrupts being disabled. This patchset is
trying to add all skb to a free list, then free them after
spin_unlock_irqrestore() at once.
v1 -> v2:
change subject prefix to "wifi: rtlwifi: ..."
Yang Yingliang (3):
wifi: rtlwifi: rtl8821ae: don't call kfree_skb() under
spin_lock_irqsave()
wifi: rtlwifi: rtl8188ee: don't call kfree_skb() under
spin_lock_irqsave()
wifi: rtlwifi: rtl8723be: don't call kfree_skb() under
spin_lock_irqsave()
