rt2x00: Upgrade queue->lock to use irqsave
The queue->lock could be grabbed from interrupt context, which could lead to lockdep panic like this: kernel: ====================================================== kernel: [ INFO: soft-safe -> soft-unsafe lock order detected ] kernel: 2.6.25-0.95.rc4.fc9 #1 kernel: ------------------------------------------------------ kernel: rt2500pci/1251 [HC0[0]:SC0[1]:HE1:SE0] is trying to acquire: kernel: (&queue->lock){--..}, at: [<ffffffff88213339>] rt2x00queue_get_entry+0x5a/0x81 [rt2x00lib] kernel: kernel: and this task is already holding: kernel: (_xmit_IEEE80211){-...}, at: [<ffffffff8122e9a3>] __qdisc_run+0x84/0x1a9 kernel: which would create a new lock dependency: kernel: (_xmit_IEEE80211){-...} -> (&queue->lock){--..} kernel: kernel: but this new dependency connects a soft-irq-safe lock: kernel: (_xmit_ETHER){-+..} kernel: ... which became soft-irq-safe at: kernel: [<ffffffffffffffff>] 0xffffffffffffffff kernel: kernel: to a soft-irq-unsafe lock: kernel: (&queue->lock){--..} kernel: ... which became soft-irq-unsafe at: kernel: ...
