ath11k_peer_find_by_addr states via lockdep that ab->base_lock must be
held when calling that function in order to protect the list. All
callers except ath11k_mac_op_unassign_vif_chanctx have that lock
acquired when calling ath11k_peer_find_by_addr. That lock is also not
transitively held by a path towards ath11k_mac_op_unassign_vif_chanctx.
The solution is to acquire the lock when calling
ath11k_peer_find_by_addr inside ath11k_mac_op_unassign_vif_chanctx.
I am currently working on a static analyser to detect missing locks and
this was a reported case. I manually verified the report by looking at
the code, but I do not have real hardware so this is compile tested
only.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
