Subject: [PATCH] hostap: Unregister netdevs before freeing local data
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7cb3cd090c2725b80561958a362c2ba15a7a8c86;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

[PATCH] hostap: Unregister netdevs before freeing local data

Unregister all netdevs before freeing local data. I was unable to
trigger any crashes without this change when running busy loops for
driver operations when ejecting a Prism2 PC Card. Anyway, should there
be a race condition with this, better make it less likely to happen by
unregistering the netdevs first.
