wl12xx: lock the RCU when accessing sta via ieee80211_find_sta()
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
We were calling ieee80211_find_sta() and the sta returned by it
without locking the RCU, which is required by mac80211.

Fix this and reorganize slightly the area of the code where the sta is
used.
