From bc00a91d627026f08abf69bf5d0015499dd30c2a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Mon, 3 Mar 2014 13:55:54 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] cfg80211: remove racy beacon_interval assignment In case of AP mode, the beacon interval is already reset to zero inside cfg80211_stop_ap(), and in the other modes it isn't relevant. Remove the assignment to remove a potential race since the assignment isn't properly locked.
