The BA tear down will be unfortunately untested, for now When you shut down the AP, it probably sends you a deauth. Frames we want to send out for it might still be pending in our queue. Since you're removing the sta_info for it right away and not stopping queues, you get the "unauthorized port" message because there's no sta_info struct. The reason you haven't seen that before is that the sta_info wasn't deleted, so we could still send out a few frames before netif_carrier_down took effect. To fix it, we probably want to simply stop the queue for that subif too. johannes
