Subject: sta_info_flush_defer:  Splat in 3.9.0-rc5+

I'm getting started on testing 3.9.0-rc5+ a bit more seriously.  This is on
a tree with some additional patches:

http://dmz2.candelatech.com/git/gitweb.cgi?p=linux-3.9.dev.y/.git;a=summary


The splat below comes from this.  I see lots of these on both station and AP system when
bouncing 50 or so stations.

int sta_info_flush_defer(struct ieee80211_sub_if_data *sdata)
{
	struct ieee80211_local *local = sdata->local;
	struct sta_info *sta, *tmp;
	int ret = 0;

	might_sleep();

	mutex_lock(&local->sta_mtx);
	list_for_each_entry_safe(sta, tmp, &local->sta_list, list) {
		if (sdata == sta->sdata) {
			WARN_ON(__sta_info_destroy(sta));
			ret++;
		}
	}
	mutex_unlock(&local->sta_mtx);

	return ret;
}
