Subject: [PATCH 4.19 24/56] ath10k: hold RCU lock when calling ieee80211_find_sta_by_ifaddr()

From: Shuah Khan <skhan@...uxfoundation.org>

[ Upstream commit 09078368d516918666a0122f2533dc73676d3d7e ]

ieee80211_find_sta_by_ifaddr() must be called under the RCU lock and
the resulting pointer is only valid under RCU lock as well.

Fix ath10k_wmi_tlv_op_pull_peer_stats_info() to hold RCU lock before it
calls ieee80211_find_sta_by_ifaddr() and release it when the resulting
pointer is no longer needed.

This problem was found while reviewing code to debug RCU warn from
ath10k_wmi_tlv_parse_peer_stats_info().
