Johannes Berg 79010420cc [PATCH] mac80211: fix virtual interface locking 
Florian Lohoff noticed a bug in mac80211: when bringing the
master interface down while other virtual interfaces are up
we call dev_close() under a spinlock which is not allowed.
This patch removes the sub_if_lock used by mac80211 in favour
of using an RCU list. All list manipulations are already done
under rtnl so are well protected against each other, and the
read-side locks we took in the RX and TX code are already in
RCU read-side critical sections.
