[PATCH net 3/5] wifi: rtlwifi: wait for firmware loading before releasing memory

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



At probe error path, the firmware loading work may have already been
queued. In such a case, it will try to access memory allocated by the probe
function, which is about to be released. In such paths, wait for the
firmware worker to finish before releasing memory.
