[PATCH v2 1/2] mac80211: Stop timers before canceling work items.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Ben Greear <greearb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Re-order the quiesce code so that timers are
always stopped before work-items are flushed.  This was
not the problem I saw, but I think it may still be more
correct.
