Ah... Crud. As near as I can tell Martin fixed a lot of these in the driver he is working on, rtl8188eu. But they still aren't fixed in rtl8723bs. I looked at the functions and the following loops need to changed to list_for_each_safe(). (Doing a search for list_del_init() helped during review). expire_timeout_chk() (both loops) rtw_acl_remove_sta() rtw_sta_flush() stop_ap_mode() rtw_free_network_queue() chk_bmc_sleepq_hdl() rtw_free_all_stainfo() rtw_free_xmitframe_queue() dequeue_xmitframes_to_sleeping_queue() wakeup_sta_to_xmit() (both loops) xmit_delivery_enabled_frames() xmit_xmitframes() cfg80211_rtw_del_station() regards, dan carpenter
