Baochen Qiang 0a993772e0 wifi: ath12k: fix race due to setting ATH12K_FLAG_EXT_IRQ_ENABLED too early 
Commit 5082b3e302 ("wifi: ath11k: fix race due to setting
ATH11K_FLAG_EXT_IRQ_ENABLED too early") fixes a race in ath11k
driver. Since ath12k shares the same logic as ath11k, currently
the race also exists in ath12k: in ath12k_pci_ext_irq_enable(),
ATH12K_FLAG_EXT_IRQ_ENABLED is set before NAPI is enabled.
In cases where only one MSI vector is allocated, this results
in a race condition: after ATH12K_FLAG_EXT_IRQ_ENABLED is set
but before NAPI enabled, CE interrupt breaks in. Since IRQ is
shared by CE and data path, ath12k_pci_ext_interrupt_handler()
is also called where we call disable_irq_nosync() to disable
IRQ. Then napi_schedule() is called but it does nothing because
NAPI is not enabled at that time, meaning that
ath12k_pci_ext_grp_napi_poll() will never run, so we have
no chance to call enable_irq() to enable IRQ back. Since IRQ
is shared, all interrupts are disabled and we would finally
get no response from target.

So port ath11k fix here, this is done by setting
ATH12K_FLAG_EXT_IRQ_ENABLED after all NAPI and IRQ work are
done. With the fix, we are sure that by the time
ATH12K_FLAG_EXT_IRQ_ENABLED is set, NAPI is enabled.

Note that the fix above also introduce some side effects:
if ath12k_pci_ext_interrupt_handler() breaks in after NAPI
enabled but before ATH12K_FLAG_EXT_IRQ_ENABLED set, nothing
will be done by the handler this time, the work will be
postponed till the next time the IRQ fires.

This is found during code review.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
