Johannes Berg 4a19906823 mac80211: disentangle iflist_mtx and chanctx_mtx
At least on iwlwifi, sometimes lockdep complains that we can
lock
 chanctx_mtx -> mvm.mutex -> iflist_mtx
 (due to iterate_interfaces)
and
 iflist_mtx -> chanctx_mtx

Remove the latter dependency in mac80211 by using the RTNL
that we already hold in one case, and can relatively easily
achieve in the other case.

README

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.
