Fixes: commit 450914c39f88 ("brcmfmac: split brcmf_attach() and brcmf_detach() functions")

This should be:

Fixes: 450914c39f88 ("brcmfmac: split brcmf_attach() and brcmf_detach() functions")

Hi Kalle,

But this is not the commit that needs fixing as I mentioned before. Instead it should be a1f5aac1765af ("brcmfmac: don't realloc wiphy during PCIe reset") which introduced the actual memory leak.

Regards,
Arend
