    mac80211: Add RTNL version of ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces · 2f561feb

    Since commit e38bad47
    	mac80211: make ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces not need rtnl
    rt2500usb and rt73usb broke down due to attempting register access
    in atomic context (which is not possible for USB hardware).
    
    This patch restores ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces() to use RTNL lock,
    and provides the non-RTNL version under a new name:
    	ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces_atomic()
    
    So far only rt2x00 uses ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces(), and those
    drivers require the RTNL version of ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces().
    Since they already call that function directly, this patch will automatically
    fix the USB rt2x00 drivers.
