In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: wilc1000: fix RCU usage in connect path
With lockdep enabled, calls to the connect function from cfg802.11 layer
lead to the following warning:
=============================

This warning is emitted because in the connect path, when trying to parse
target BSS parameters, we dereference a RCU pointer whithout being in RCU
critical section.
Fix RCU dereference usage by moving it to a RCU read critical section. To
avoid wrapping the whole wilc_parse_join_bss_param under the critical
section, just use the critical section to copy ies data
