[PATCH] ath9k: Fix a warning due to a queued work during S3 state

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

 



From: Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan <mshajakhan@xxxxxxxxxxx>

during suspend/S3 state drv_flush is called from mac80211 irrespective of
interface count. In ath9k we queue a work in ath9k_flush which we expect
to be cancelled in the drv_stop call back. during suspend process mac80211
calls drv_stop only when the interface count(local->count) is non-zero.
unfortunately when the network manager is enabled, drv_flush is called
while drv_stop is not called as local->count reaches '0'.
	So fix this by simply checking for the device presence in the
drv_flush call back in the driver before queueing work or anything else.
this patch fixes the following WARNING
