The patch looks fine to me. Hardware scanning is a trigger that makes
the condition more likely to happen, the patch itself fixes the more
general problem for multiple interfaces.

Yeah, I think so too.

An off-topic question: should wmaster0 continue to execute more rx
handlers (i.e ieee80211_rx_h_remove_qos_control) even if it knows it
will drop them finially?

I don't think it does, does it? In prepare_for_handlers frames aren't
sent to the master device while not scanning.

It does so only during a scan. In that case the frame gets first
dropped in ieee80211_rx_h_data on the master device.
