Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: disable BHs/preemption in
 ieee80211_tx_control_port()

On pre-emption enabled kernels the following print was being seen due to
missing local_bh_disable/local_bh_enable calls.  mac80211 assumes that
pre-emption is disabled in the data path.

    BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: iwd/517
    caller is __ieee80211_subif_start_xmit+0x144/0x210 [mac80211]
    [...]
    Call Trace:
    dump_stack+0x5c/0x80
    check_preemption_disabled.cold.0+0x46/0x51
    __ieee80211_subif_start_xmit+0x144/0x210 [mac80211]
