If there are still pending packets in the tx queue when removing a station, it could possibly lead to a call to further attempts to pull packets from the mac80211 tx queue after it has already been removed from the scheduling list. Prevent this from happening by calling synchronize_rcu after deleting the wcid pointer before further cleaning up the tx queues. To be extra careful, ensure that mtxq->list is always initialized properly.
