Dominik Brodowski 7a94b8c2ee nl80211: take RCU read lock when calling ieee80211_bss_get_ie()
As ieee80211_bss_get_ie() derefences an RCU to return ssid_ie, both
the call to this function and any operation on this variable need
protection by the RCU read lock.

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.
