From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx> If prep_channel fails in prep_connection, the code releases the deflink's chanctx, which is wrong since we may be using a different link. It's already wrong to even do that always though, since we might still have the station. Remove it only if prep_channel succeeded and later updates fail.
