The ath11k active pdevs are protected by RCU but the temperature event handling code calling ath11k_mac_get_ar_by_pdev_id() was not marked as a read-side critical section as reported by RCU lockdep:

drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath11k/mac.c:638 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!
other info that might help us debug this:
rcu_scheduler_active = 2, debug_locks = 1 no locks held by swapper/0/0. ... Call trace: ... lockdep_rcu_suspicious+0x16c/0x22c ath11k_mac_get_ar_by_pdev_id+0x194/0x1b0 [ath11k] ath11k_wmi_tlv_op_rx+0xa84/0x2c1c [ath11k] ath11k_htc_rx_completion_handler+0x388/0x510 [ath11k]
Mark the code in question as an RCU read-side critical section to avoid any potential use-after-free issues.
