ieee80211_txq_purge() calls fq_tin_reset() and ieee80211_purge_tx_queue(); Both are then calling ieee80211_free_txskb(). Which can decide to TX the skb again. There are at least two ways to get a deadlock: 1) When we have a TDLS teardown packet queued in either tin or frags ieee80211_tdls_td_tx_handle() will call ieee80211_subif_start_xmit() while we still hold fq->lock. ieee80211_txq_enqueue() will thus deadlock. 2) A variant of the above happens if aggregation is up and running: In that case ieee80211_iface_work() will deadlock with the original task: The original tasks already holds fq->lock and tries to get sta->lock after kicking off ieee80211_iface_work(). But the worker can get sta->lock prior to the original task and will then spin for fq->lock. Avoid these deadlocks by not sending out any skbs when called via ieee80211_free_txskb().
