Station pointers are RCU protected so driver must be extra careful if it tries to store them internally for later use outside of the RCU section it obtained it in. It was possible for station teardown to race with some htt events. The possible outcome could be a use-after-free and a crash. Only peer-flow-control capable firmware was affected (so hardware-wise qca99x0 and qca4019). This could be done in sta_state() itself via explicit synchronize_net() call but there's already a convenient sta_pre_rcu_remove() op that can be hooked up to avoid extra rcu stall. The peer->sta pointer itself can't be set to NULL/ERR_PTR because it is later used in sta_state() for extra sanity checks.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
