Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath11k: fix gtk offload status event locking
The ath11k active pdevs are protected by RCU but the gtk offload status
event handling code calling ath11k_mac_get_arvif_by_vdev_id() was not
marked as a read-side critical section.
Mark the code in question as an RCU read-side critical section to avoid
any potential use-after-free issues.
Compile tested only.
