/**
 * DOC: STA information lifetime rules
 *
 * STA info structures (&struct sta_info) are managed in a hash table
 * for faster lookup and a list for iteration. They are managed using
 * RCU, i.e. access to the list and hash table is protected by RCU.
 *
 * Upon allocating a STA info structure with sta_info_alloc(), the caller owns
 * that structure. It must then either destroy it using sta_info_destroy()
 * (which is pretty useless) or insert it into the hash table using
 * sta_info_insert() which demotes the reference from ownership to a regular
 * RCU-protected reference; if the function is called without protection by an
 * RCU critical section the reference is instantly invalidated. Note that the
 * caller may not do much with the STA info before inserting it, in particular,
 * it may not start any mesh peer link management or add encryption keys.
 *
 * When the insertion fails (sta_info_insert()) returns non-zero), the
 * structure will have been freed by sta_info_insert()!
 *
 * Because there are debugfs entries for each station, and adding those
 * must be able to sleep, it is also possible to "pin" a station entry,
 * that means it can be removed from the hash table but not be freed.
 * See the comment in __sta_info_unlink() for more information, this is
 * an internal capability only.
 *
 * In order to remove a STA info structure, the caller needs to first
 * unlink it (sta_info_unlink()) from the list and hash tables and
 * then destroy it; sta_info_destroy() will wait for an RCU grace period
 * to elapse before actually freeing it. Due to the pinning and the
 * possibility of multiple callers trying to remove the same STA info at
 * the same time, sta_info_unlink() can clear the STA info pointer it is
 * passed to indicate that the STA info is owned by somebody else now.
 *
 * If sta_info_unlink() did not clear the pointer then the caller owns
 * the STA info structure now and is responsible of destroying it with
 * a call to sta_info_destroy().
 *
 * In all other cases, there is no concept of ownership on a STA entry,
 * each structure is owned by the global hash table/list until it is
 * removed. All users of the structure need to be RCU protected so that
 * the structure won't be freed before they are done using it.
