In rtl8180_tx(), skb->data is mapped to streaming DMA on line 476: mapping = dma_map_single(..., skb->data, ...); On line 459, skb->data is assigned to hdr after cast: struct ieee80211_hdr *hdr = (struct ieee80211_hdr *)skb->data; Then hdr->seq_ctrl is accessed on lines 540 and 541: hdr->seq_ctrl &= cpu_to_le16(IEEE80211_SCTL_FRAG); hdr->seq_ctrl |= cpu_to_le16(priv->seqno); These DMA accesses may cause data inconsistency between CPU and hardwre. To fix this problem, hdr->seq_ctrl is accessed before the DMA mapping.
