[ Upstream commit 05f136220d17839eb7c155f015ace9152f603225 ]
As previously reported by Alexander, whose commit 69403bad97
("wifi: mac80211: sdata can be NULL during AMPDU start") I'm
reverting as part of this commit, there's a race between station
destruction and aggregation setup, where the aggregation setup
can happen while the station is being removed and queue the work
after ieee80211_sta_tear_down_BA_sessions() has already run in
__sta_info_destroy_part1(), and thus the worker will run with a
now freed station. In his case, this manifested in a NULL sdata
pointer, but really there's no guarantee whatsoever.
The real issue seems to be that it's possible at all to have a
situation where this occurs - we want to stop the BA sessions
when doing _part1, but we cannot be sure, and WLAN_STA_BLOCK_BA
isn't necessarily effective since we don't know that the setup
isn't concurrently running and already got past the check.
Simply call ieee80211_sta_tear_down_BA_sessions() again in the
second part of station destruction, since at that point really
nothing else can hold a reference to the station any more.
Also revert the sdata checks since those are just misleading at
this point.

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.
