New Revision: 225913
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/225913

Log:
  Fix a panic in the wifi stack when a software beacon miss occurs in the wrong state.
  
  The ieee80211_swbmiss() callout is not called with the ic lock held, so it's
  quite possible the scheduler will run the callout during a state change.
  
  This patch:
  
  * changes the swbmiss callout to be locked by the ic lock
  * enforces the ic lock being held across the beacon vap functions
    by grabbing it inside beacon_miss() and beacon_swmiss().
  
  This ensures that the ic lock is held (and thus the VAP state
  stays constant) during beacon miss and software miss processing.
  Since the callout is removed whilst the ic lock is held, it also
  ensures that the ic lock can't be called during a state change
  or exhibit any race conditions seen above.
  
  Both Edgar and Joel report that this patch fixes the crash and
  doesn't introduce new issues.
