Subject: [89/89] iwlegacy: fix channel switch locking

2.6.39-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@...hat.com>

commit 51e65257142a87fe46a1ce5c35c86c5baf012614 upstream.

We use priv->mutex to avoid race conditions between chswitch_done()
and mac_channel_switch(), when marking channel switch in
progress. But chswitch_done() can be called in atomic context
from rx_csa() or with mutex already taken from commit_rxon().

To fix remove mutex from chswitch_done() and use atomic bitops
for marking channel switch pending.
