ath10k: sdio: Add missing BH locking around napi_schdule()
On a i.MX-based board with a QCA9377 Wifi chip, the following errors are seen after launching the 'hostapd' application: hostapd /etc/wifi.conf Configuration file: /etc/wifi.conf wlan0: interface state UNINITIALIZED->COUNTRY_UPDATE NOHZ tick-stop error: Non-RCU local softirq work is pending, handler #08!!! Using interface wlan0 with hwaddr 00:1f:7b:31:04:a0 and ssid "thessid" IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): wlan0: link becomes ready wlan0: interface state COUNTRY_UPDATE->ENABLED wlan0: AP-ENABLED NOHZ tick-stop error: Non-RCU local softirq work is pending, handler #08!!! NOHZ tick-stop error: Non-RCU local softirq work is pending, handler #08!!! NOHZ tick-stop error: Non-RCU local softirq work is pending, handler #08!!! NOHZ tick-stop error: Non-RCU local softirq work is pending, handler #08!!! ... Fix this problem by adding the BH locking around napi-schedule(), in the same way it was done in commit e63052a5dd3c ("mlx5e: add add missing BH locking around napi_schdule()"). Its commit log provides the following explanation: "It's not correct to call napi_schedule() in pure process context. Because we use __raise_softirq_irqoff() we require callers to be in a context which will eventually lead to softirq handling (hardirq, bh disabled, etc.). With code as is users will see: NOHZ tick-stop error: Non-RCU local softirq work is pending, handler #08!!!
