[ Upstream commit 551842446ed695641a00782cd118cbb064a416a1 ]
ifmsh->csa is an RCU-protected pointer. The writer context in ieee80211_mesh_finish_csa() is already mutually exclusive with wdev->sdata.mtx, but the RCU checker did not know this. Use rcu_dereference_protected() to avoid a warning.
fixes the following warning:
