commit ebaa4b1620bf69f2bc43cb45ea85fbafdaec23c3 upstream.
arvifs list is traversed within data_lock spin_lock in tasklet context to fill channel information from the corresponding vif. This means any access to arvifs list for add/del operations should also be protected with the same spin_lock to avoid the race. Fix this by performing list add/del on arvfis within the data_lock. This could fix kernel panic something like the below.
