mac80211: sparse RCU annotations
This adds sparse RCU annotations to most of mac80211, only the mesh code remains to be done. Due the the previous patches, the annotations are pretty simple. The only thing that this actually changes is removing the RCU usage of key->sta in debugfs since this pointer isn't actually an RCU-managed pointer (it only has a single assignment done before the key even goes live). As that is otherwise harmless, I decided to make it part of this patch. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
