lockdep complains use of uninitialized spinlock at ieee80211_do_stop() [1],
for commit f856373e2f31ffd3 ("wifi: mac80211: do not wake queues on a vif
that is being stopped") guards clear_bit() using fq.lock even before
fq_init() from ieee80211_txq_setup_flows() initializes this spinlock.
According to discussion [2], Toke was not happy with expanding usage of
fq.lock. Since __ieee80211_wake_txqs() is called under RCU read lock, we
can instead use synchronize_rcu() for flushing ieee80211_wake_txqs().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
