Johannes Berg says:

====================
This time, only RTNL locking reduction fallout.
 - cfg80211_dev_rename() requires RTNL
 - cfg80211_change_iface() and cfg80211_set_encryption()
   require wiphy mutex (was missing in wireless extensions)
 - cfg80211_destroy_ifaces() requires wiphy mutex
 - netdev registration can fail due to notifiers, and then
   notifiers are "unrolled", need to handle this properly

* tag 'mac80211-next-for-net-next-2021-02-02' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jberg/mac80211-next:
  cfg80211: fix netdev registration deadlock
  cfg80211: call cfg80211_destroy_ifaces() with wiphy lock held
  wext: call cfg80211_set_encryption() with wiphy lock held
  wext: call cfg80211_change_iface() with wiphy lock held
  nl80211: call cfg80211_dev_rename() under RTNL
