Since ath10k_mac_tx_push_txq() can be called from process context, we must explicitly disable softirqs before the call into mac80211. By calling ieee80211_tx_dequeue_ni() instead of ieee80211_tx_dequeue() we make sure softirqs are always disabled even in the case when ath10k_mac_tx_push_txq() is called from process context. Calling ieee80211_tx_dequeue_ni() with softirq's already disabled (e.g., from softirq context) should be safe as the local_bh_disable() and local_bh_enable() functions (called from ieee80211_tx_dequeue_ni) are fully reentrant.

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.
