[PATCH v2.6.36-rc7] mac80211: cancel restart_work explicitly instead of depending on flush_scheduled_work()

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

 



iee80211_hw->restart_work is the only work which uses the system
workqueue.  Instead of calling flush_scheduled_work() during
iee80211_exit(), cancel the work during unregistration.

This is to prepare for the deprecation and removal of
flush_scheduled_work().
