| |
This didn't get much attention on bugzilla and I figured it was important enough to forward along to the whole list since it's been lingering around in ieee80211-softmac since 19-git5 at least. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7657
Somebody was passing the whole mac device structure to ieee80211softmac_assoc_work instead of just the assocation work, which lead to much death and locking.
Attached is a patch that fixes this (the actual change is two lines but context provided in patch for review). The dmesg containing call trace is attached to the bugzilla entry above.
