Subject: [PATCH 3/4] net: mac80211: sta_info.c: Add lockdep condition for RCU list usage

From: Madhuparna Bhowmik <madhuparnabhowmik10@...il.com>

The function sta_info_get_by_idx() uses RCU list primitive.
It is called with  local->sta_mtx held from mac80211/cfg.c.
Add lockdep expression to avoid any false positive RCU list warnings.
