From 35760dc525870d213ba2a77fb92e8652290b76df Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Larry Finger Date: Fri, 24 Apr 2015 11:03:37 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] rtlwifi: rtl8192cu: Fix kernel deadlock commit 414b7e3b9ce8b0577f613e656fdbc36b34b444dd upstream. The USB mini-driver in rtlwifi, which is used by rtl8192cu, issues a call to usb_control_msg() with a timeout value of 0. In some instances where the interface is shutting down, this infinite wait results in a CPU deadlock. A one second timeout fixes this problem without affecting any normal operations.
