Baochen Qiang cf2df0080b wifi: ath11k: fix a possible dead lock caused by ab->base_lock
spin_lock()/spin_unlock() are used in ath11k_reg_chan_list_event() to
acquire/release ab->base_lock. For now this is safe because that
function is only called in soft IRQ context.

But ath11k_reg_chan_list_event() will be called from process
context in an upcoming patch, and this can result in a deadlock if
ab->base_lock is acquired in process context and then soft IRQ occurs
on the same CPU and tries to acquire that lock.

Fix it by using spin_lock_bh() and spin_unlock_bh() instead.

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.
