Commitc3718936ec("ipv6: anycast: complete RCU handling of struct ifacaddr6") converted struct inet6_dev::ac_list to use RCU but missed that ath11k also accesses this list. Now sparse warns: drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath11k/mac.c:9145:21: warning: incorrect type in assignment (different address spaces) drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath11k/mac.c:9145:21: expected struct ifacaddr6 *ifaca6 drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath11k/mac.c:9145:21: got struct ifacaddr6 [noderef] __rcu *ac_list drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath11k/mac.c:9145:53: warning: incorrect type in assignment (different address spaces) drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath11k/mac.c:9145:53: expected struct ifacaddr6 *ifaca6 drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath11k/mac.c:9145:53: got struct ifacaddr6 [noderef] __rcu *aca_next Fix it by using rtnl_dereference(). Also add a note that read_lock_bh() calls rcu_read_lock() which I was not aware of.
