In b43_request_firmware(), when ieee80211_register_hw() fails, b43_one_core_detach() is called. In b43_bcma_remove() and b43_ssb_remove(), b43_one_core_detach() is called again. In this case, null-pointer dereferences and double-free problems can occur when the driver is removed. To fix this bug, the call to b43_one_core_detach() in b43_request_firmware() is deleted. This bug is found by a runtime fuzzing tool named FIZZER written by us.
