Subject: [PATCH] nl80211: take RCU read lock when calling ieee80211_bss_get_ie()
Git-commit: 7a94b8c2eee7083ddccd0515830f8c81a8e44b1a
Patch-mainline: v4.15-rc9
References: bsc#1051510

As ieee80211_bss_get_ie() derefences an RCU to return ssid_ie, both
the call to this function and any operation on this variable need
protection by the RCU read lock.

Fixes: 44905265bc15 ("nl80211: don't expose wdev->ssid for most interfaces")
