From 6330d5534786d5315d56d558aa6d20740f97d80a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kees Cook Date: Mon, 6 Mar 2017 12:42:12 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] pstore: Shut down worker when unregistering When built as a module and running with update_ms >= 0, pstore will Oops during module unload since the work timer is still running. This makes sure the worker is stopped before unloading.
