From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx> When suspending without WoWLAN, cfg80211 will ask drivers to disconnect. Even when the driver does this synchronously, and immediately returns with a notification, cfg80211 schedules the handling thereof to a workqueue, and may then call back into the driver when the driver was already suspended/ing. Fix this by processing all events caused by cfg80211_leave_all() directly after that function returns. The driver still needs to do the right thing here and wait for the firmware response, but that is - at least - true for mwifiex where this occurred.
